I would be grateful for comments on my diagnosis of a problem that's been bugging me: 73 TR6 - front brake discs (rotors?): 1. After car purchased, noticed a groove worn into inboard surface of both

You also fitted new pads at this point ? IMO it's more likely that some time in the past, your car has had a seized bearing and it spun on the stub axle. The stuck piston might well have caused the
