That's my recolllection too...and the availability of "spats" on the
TR was for a very limited time with the TR-2. Several original
sets have been around on restored cars and I believe someone
actually may have reproduced a set or two at some point. They are
pretty scarce items and I'd find them unusual as an item used on
a competition car.
I have no recollection of seeing anything similar for TR-7s.
Cheers and Happy New Year everyone.
