Hi, am restoring an ex-Canadian TR4A that was first registered over here
on
13 FEB 1968, all other evidence points to it being a '67 model. This car
has a
"conventional" "pull up and press the button to release handbrake". The
Chassis number is listed as 5CT50520L. Hope this may help. ...Trev.....1967
TR4A

I'm confused, because that number you quote points to a 1965 model...an
early TR4A solid rear axle car. The TR4A series started with CT50001 or
CTC50001 (CTC were the more common IRS cars). Also, the initial "5" is
something
often physically added to the commission number plate by Canadian
authorities to indicate a model year.
