Hello All,

I am looking for the owner of the beautiful TR3 in the attached picture. I am fortunate to have obtained the same grill as is on this car and I am looking to ask the owner a few questions. Many thanks to all.

Bill - that's an aftermarket grill from AMCO. You can see it in this old catalogue:

Triumph TR Register Australia

www.tr-register.com.au www.tr-register.com.au

Did you see the car at a show here in Connecticut?

Good morning Tom!

I thought it was an AMCO grill too until I started restoring the turn signal holders. If you look at the AMCO advertisement and most pictures found on the web, there are tubes on either side of the signal holders. The grill I have is like the one above, where there are no tubes, just a bent piece of metal that the center tube ends into.

This picture was one I had copied from somewhere on the internet from a club meeting in California, if I remember correctly.

Thanks,

Bill

I once had a 1952 Ford coupe with a free-floating Pontiac grille. Traded even-up for a 1951 MG TD in 1954. Started me on the road to ruin.
