Hello There

I shall be detailing the restoration of TCS R3940 here (please see into in members cars).

I have a couple of early questions please.

Where do I find the gearbox number please? The chassis plate says gearbox number is 3091. I have this number in the side of the gearbox (see pic below)

Also the engine chain tensioner (see pic below) seems to be in contact with the chassis.......

Many thanks

Berni

Gearbox number is on the round plate in your second picture. In the silver portion.

Tesioner on frame, sagging engine mounts, probably the trans mount too.
The simplest fix you will be doing.

Hello

Thank you. It looks thus, although its strange that it starts with a 35 but is clearly a 5sp.
