[TR] TR3 MC Reservoir Cap

[William Brewer]

     That's the same cap alright. I never imagined anyone else having it
except the standard Brit car guys.

They're a bit more
expensive, but also readily available, at Pegasus Racing:

My TR3
master cylinder reservoir cap has always been pretty knackered. It
looks like
Vise-grips have always been used to open it. I have looked at the
big 3 for
replacement caps. Moss offers a plastic cap replacement . I was
looking on
Australian Ebay for Triumph Renown parts (mechanically similar to
Standard
Vanguard series 1 parts...) and ran across new caps for reasonable
prices. I
ordered one and it is the exact replacement.
