Despite a subtle update in the shape of the aluminium door top cappings in 1957, the core of this capping remained consistent for 9 years spanning the production run of the TR2, TR3, TR3A and TR3″B” models. As with most things in life, preparation is everything – and this is very true of this inner core – with a specific thickness, rigidity and density required to attain the desired finish for this capping area. Once this rubber core is in place, the capping assembly remained the same with a material upholstery finish in either a Vynide (Leathercloth) or Leather, depending on the material specification of that particular car.

John Skinner Ltd can offer the correct specification rubber core for this part; and have done for 1000s of projects over the course of our 40-year history of catering for the Concours quality restorations of Triumph TRs. Note that these can be tricky parts to re-upholster – so please do view our Handbook for further information and guides on how best to trim these parts.
