Hello Rich:
Somebody did. There was an article about it, but I disremember the magazine;
I will try to dig it up. The article pointed out the difficulty involved
because the car had almost nothing in common with a stock TR3. I remember
that one of the hardest things to replicate was the 7 inch stretch, because
it was difficult to see just where the TR3S was stretched. In fact, if I
recall correctly, it was stretched in more than one place. Also the
replicator just used a TR3 engine instead of the Sabrina engine.
No doubt some lister will have more information than I do.
