The two lower holes look like they could be for a supplier's plate, but that doesn't explain the top hole. So how about the top hole for a wire to some sort  of panel light?

Thought they might be for a map light or similar, the distance between all three holes is equal.

It could be for a small vase holder or maybe an ashtray.

It could be a supplier badge, Tony Betts sent me an image of a triangle shape suppliers badge but just check and it had one fixing hole. What is the registration prefix or do you know who supplied the car?

Hi Douglas,

Could you email me your site for the suppliers plates.

A friend bought a realy nice garage sign today, i couldn't aford to fit him on the price. Although he did stay away from a nice austin sign for me. So alls well.

Anyway you may have already researched the garage.

Sorry for going of thread on this one.

Tony.
