This isn't conclusive, but I am certain the latch was on the driver's  
side/hinge on the passenger's side of my dad's RHD 1960 TR3A that we owned  in 
the UK in 1972-75. This, as has been previously mentioned, would facilitate  
filling for the driver. I can't say if it was originally in that position; 
the  car had been painted once before we bought it and therefore the filler 
may have  been removed for that operation (but knowing UK paint techniques 
from the 70's,  it probably wasn't....) and refitted differently. However, I 
am tending to think  it was original.
