This interesting article was originally published in the May 1957 issue of Motor Sport, and briefly outlines a visit to the MG, Standard, and Austin factories. If I am not mistaken, the first photo (unfortunately black and white and somewhat grainy) shows a TR3 wearing the almost-mythical "Grand Touring" conversion, with permanently attached side curtains and outside door handles. http://goo.gl/r7HCK My thanks to 'Andy' (not Andy Mace) on the BCF Austin-Healey forum for posting it. - Randall ** triumphs@autox.team.net ** Archive: http://www.team.net/archive |
