Richard, I live out in California, and have used Moss almost exclusively for my TR-3 re-build. I have been happy with the parts I've recieved, although I haven't had to buy any "big" stuff yet, just

John, I've had good results from some stuff called "Rust Reformer" by Rust-oleum. Other people make similar compounds. It supposedly converts rust to some other non-oxidizing compound, and prevents f

Alan, Let me offer my experiences with wire wheels. They are undeniably the prettiest type of wheels available, and the knock-offs are actually practical. On the other hand, you have to use inner tub

Your problem with the pedal going all the way to the floor sounds a lot like the problem a friend of mine was having with his Lexus (sorry about the bad word) after he tried to do his brakes by himse

Rich, It happens all over. Several years ago I lived in Berkeley, and had to park my TR-3 on the street. One morning I came out of my apartment to find that someone had stolen my convertible top and

Hello All, As I am finally making some progress on my TR-3 restoration, I have some leftover parts which I want to hold onto as "spares". The problem is they have a tendancy to deteriorate over time

John, As far as I know, there are only a few solutions to this problem. 1. Take the carb to a machine shop to drill out and re-bush the carbs, then buy new shafts. 2. There may be oversize shafts ava

Ashley, An interesting resource for "spicing up" a TR engine is the factory competition manual. Moss sells a reprint of it. (800) 234-6954. They have them for TR-3's and TR-4's. Jim H California TR-3

Tobias, I agree with Rik, the standard rubber pads should be all that is needed. I especially agree with his recommendation to tighten every bolt you can find. The pads will "settle", and the motor h

You asked about original horsepower on the TR-3. I believe it was quoted as just under 100 HP with a standard 2.0 liter, I would guess about 105 with the 87mm sleeves. Jim H
