At 7K per pop I can find lots of TR3 frames--heck, I can make 'em for that.
I've seen rusty TR3's locally that were basically parts cars sell for $500
to $1000 depending on the parts that remain useful. That said, the internet
is the world's biggest garage sale. A paperback book that would sell for
$.25 to the great unwashed in your neighborhood sells for 85 bucks for the
goof who really cares about it (that's what I paid for a proof copy of
Patrick O'brian's Master and Commander)

The response was that the frame alone was worth $7000 "on the internet".
Needless to say I am not the current owner. >>
Yeah! You should probably check with John or Paul to be sure, but if I
remember TS14221 thru TS14330 were the ones with the Platinum Frames.
