[TR] Too much time on my hands

[Roger Elliott]

Some "TR250" badges are missing from the rear fenders, some from the 
boot lid.  Dash looks basically right.  I think it is too glossy and the 
latch on the glove box is from a TR4 or 4A not a 250.  250s did not have 
the finger pull on the bottom.  Steering wheel is not a TR250 wheel - 
original ones had the spokes covered with padded vinyl.
