I saw some beautiful finned aluminum brake drums on eBay recently for the
rear of the tr3.  The seller said they were off a 240z datsun.   Does anyone
know how to mod a pair of these drums to fit the tr3?

Problem solved.  The drum is definitely not a Triumph drum.  Probably an MG.

Stupid me forgot I had a TR4 sitting in the corner that I could pull a
drum off of.  Definitely a difference in drums.

So now to get the Datsun 240Z drums modified to fit and I'll move onto
the next problem.
