[TR] Markings on side of block TR3A

[Scott Suhring]

My '59 TR3A had the orange TR3 on the block below the manifold.  I have
never heard of the other marking, though.

Subject: [TR] Markings on side of block TR3A

Hello again List,
My brother in law recently bought a 59 3A and is the process of  
dismantling it for restoration.
I remember someone on the list asking about the markings (in orange  
paint) on the side of the block, and that it wouldn't be a bad idea to  
try and maintain those markings.
His has "TR3" on one side, and "BILOHROME" on the other, again both in  
orange paint and it looks like they were hand painted.
Can someone refresh my memory on this.
I'm thinking of suggesting to him to try and keep those markings for  
originality.
I would appreciate any suggestions before I make those things more  
important than they are.
Thanks
