Yes, the prose is "deep", but if it's the car I think it is, it's a 
real
collector car because it's pretty much unmolested. I'd be really
interested in seeing the documentation and verifying it if I was going 
to
buy the car.

I agree, Bob. There's also a pretty nice '59 TR3A on eBay right now, in 
BRG. It's restored (maybe a bit overrestored?), and some aspects of the 
car SCREAM restored as opposed to original. One obvious (to me) example 
is the repro grille on the green car, which looks fine until you 
compare it to an original and see that the repro has the narrower slots.

I'd take that grey car any day over the green one...unless I could only 
have one AND wanted to drive the heck out of whichever one I bought. (I 
could not bring myself to do that to the grey car!)
