Frank,
My TR3A is a 1961, TS81000 +. It has a hole for the red wire to pass
through just above where the gear box is attached to the motor
(between the motor and gear box) I can send a pic if you want. The
brushes where still in good shape when I overhauled the motor so I re-
installed the originals; I can't remember seeing any V-groves. I may
have some pics showing the original brushes.
