[TR] tr3b

[Dave]

thanks, I think, for pointing that out.  that car has obviously been 
restored.  and, most unfortunately, they painted the engine red.  perhaps 
they thought it was roses . . .

You do have an appreciably better car to start from than the usual, it 
seems.

Question to the list:  Weren't the original engines painted black with, I 
forget, some kind of number 3 or something painted in a different color 
underneath?

Anyway, does the color of the engine paint suggest it's been rebuilt at one 
point?
