Perhaps someone who reads the big triumphs list can post this question
there. A man named John McCartney was on that list (hopefully still is) who
is a former Triumph employee. He had all sorts of first hand knowledge of
how things were done at the factory. Perhaps he can shed some light on why
some cars have the "hidden" numbers and some don't.

The previous thread regarding additonal comm. number on TR6's piqued my
curiosity. Since I happen to have the motor out of the car for it's annual
"renewal" (not really, but it sounded good!) I poked around the engine
compartment, frame rails, front crossmember etc. looking for another
number
I found _nothing_. Now I know the body and frame are original, as I am the
original owner... so someone fess up - was the talk about other serial
numbers corroborating the comm. number plate (on my car on the left-hand
door B post and on the windscreen frame and the two number tags on the
right-hand firewall) just some sort of April Fool's joke?
Curious minds want to know!
