Only 8,636 of these early side screen TR’s were ever produced.
This particular car has been upgraded with rack and pinion steering and disc
brakes.
These are sensible and acceptable improvements making the car a pleasure to
drive.
This is a matching numbers car that spent most of its like in Johannesburg
and then a short while in Durban.
I have had the car stripped down and painted here in Knysna. It had no rust.
Pics available.
