Wow John...that looks great.
The paint finish is beautiful and I love the BRG colour.
The car has the right look.
I have seen the bodies on that auction site and wondered about them.

Regards
John

Wow that's a crowded little body. You did great. When TR3's started showing up on these shores, people fell in love with how they sounded, and the performance was about the same as a stripped down VW Beetle there was a lot of great sounding street racing going on.

Outstanding! This is close to my heart because I've had 2 1:1 TR3s along the way. Great cars and lots of fun. This looks like it will be too. Beautiful finish. Waiting on the MGA.

Wow, that looks great! I used to own a TR3, but mine was red. It is one of the only cars i regret getting rid of. I really like this model.

Now you know I would like it. It has just the right stance and the colors you chose are just perfect. Very well done! 8-)

How about a look at the chassis? :shock:

Thanks for the chassis pic. Nice neat build on it. I have some of those motor mounts. They work great. :)
