I had a '57 TR3 going to college, and other than a damned gas tank seep that I
never COULD find, and keeping the SU carbs balanced, it was one of the more reliable vehicles that I owned. Of course, there is an alternator conversion for the Lucas (Prince of Darkness) generator, and while it isn't exactly "stock", it does a lot for the reliability of the machine. The wire loom that goes under the carpet by the copilot's feet is also very interesting when it finally frays shorted on a lonely road in Kansas between St. Louis and San Diego {;-) Jim "Michael 182" shared these priceless pearls of wisdom: -http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...m=24567608 79 - -among others... - -You do know you're going to have dirty fingernails for as long as you own -this car, don't you? - -Michael Jim Weir (A&P/IA, CFI, & other good alphabet soup) VP Eng RST Pres.
