[6pack] Too much time on my hands

Hey guys,
Sorry this one is old. I haven't been keeping up with my 6pack folder.

Did anybody mention this? Someone once showed me how to tell the difference in a TR4 and TR5/250 body. Looking at the engine bay, on the right inner fender well, there is the indention for the carbs, same as a TR6. This is not found on a TR4. On a TR4 both left and right are smooth curves. I pulled up the ebay listing for that car, and it looks like a TR250 to me, based on this.

Carry on.
Sloane

It’s a cold and rainy day here in Michigan – very Irish.  Killing time looking at various cars and came across this 250:

Looks like a TR4 hood/bonnet and 4A grille with no appropriate badges on the trunk/boot either.  No stripe.  But the seats look to be correct for a 250. Is that dash correct?
