So, how do you hot link here? I am a stranger in a strange land, even though TRs were my cars of choice as a child.

You seem to have a pretty solid start on a TR3 there, at least the seats look good, hehe.

I would think you can massage the cowl back into shape. I've seen restorers weld braces in until the body goes back on. Hope we can help with your restoration.

I didn't use any bracing on my own TR3A body-off restoration. Click on below.

But I welded in braces on the TR I'm doing now.

Don, I have forwarded your link to others in the MG camp who have "stepped to the dark side" as it is called there. Lot of light and heady atmosphere if you ask me!
Tom, thanks for the clean-up. You guys will have to walk me thru it as I only drove them 30+ years ago.
