Don Marshall responded:
 
 I hadn't heard this before... is it documented somewhere?  When I got my
TR3B
 in 1970 it had what I believe were the original carpets (I still have them
 somewhere), and they were black.  
 

Don and list:


According to the TRA Judging Manual, "...some variations existed, such as
charcoal grey carpet fitted to TR3B's trimmed in black, red or blue."  If
trim colors other than black, red, or blue were available, I have not seen
them. Therefore, I believe all TR3B's should have grey carpet. But remember,
only this week I told Joe his TR3B had an original engine when it had a
number smaller than the body/commission number.
