[TR] TR3 Wildcat -- eBay links for a slow afternoon

[Geo Hahn]

There is a built up TR3 model that has been on eBay forever, showing up in
my searches from time to time.  I always thought it was put together by some
disturbed child who probably went on to become a serial killer or perhaps a
congressman:

Turns out I was quite mistaken as this was actually a kit offered by Aurora:

What were they thinking?  This must have been the low water mark for respect
for the TR3.

Still, it's a Triumph model that I do not have in my collection.
