There may also be another number on a plate, painted over on the lower part of the right hand rear inner wheelarch, not really relevant. Ollie, you could confirm David's suggestion, by looking at your car's commision plate and engine number, and letting us know, do you know where your car was sent to, or is it a UK car? The body number is on a separate small alloy plate, probably your 77803, but is not the comission number which is the important one. I do know that there are a few variations with the prefix and suffix letters, in Belgium and possibly other places, possibly Indonesia. I am not an expert, this is just information that I have from various sources. When you have the numbers then a British Heritage Certificate will give you more details of the actual car, but costs around £35 or so.Ī lot of these cars have got the wrong engine fitted from other TR4s or 4As, it depends how original you need the car to be. This number is not the same as the commision number. The engine number starts with CT and ends with E stamped on the left hand side of the block near the top. It also has a code for the paint colour and one for the trim colour. This plate should be rivetted on the panel near the wiper motor. For example CTC50006 LO is left hand drive with an overdrive. If it is left hand drive then the number will finish with L, and if it has an overdrive gearbox, it will finish with an O. A 1967 car would be from CTC75172 to the end of the numbers as that was the last year for the 4A. Hi, the chassis does not have a relevant number, but the body should have a commision plate, an aluminium plate with a number from CTC50006 to CTC78687, or thereabouts.
