Mr. Rajendra who owns the 1100 TV, sold Spider and Balilla to Mr. Pradeep sometime back. The red spider is still lying on road unrestored with Mr. Pradeep.

Wow, exciting stuff. Some nice finds, and I am thrilled to see a TV surviving. One car must have been in Bombay at some point, as I have 4 wheelcaps from this model. To be fitted on my TV, whenever I get it.

8 - MTP1550 - an orange coloured car which I saw driving by in Pune.
9 - AAX8734 - I don't know the owner's name - seems to be in Hyderabad.
10 - I don't know the number - Mr.Dev Bakshi's green coloured car. He has picked it up recently from Indore.

13 - There was a black car in Hyderabad which I saw on this forum.

8 - Number is not MTP, but MZA.
9/13 - Same car I suppose?
10 - Interesting to know the car is sold (if it is the same I think it is). Where will it reside now?

Yes it has to be. The only LHD I've seen in Hyd. Owned by a dealer in the Masab tank area. It's a Deluxe, said to be formerly owned by the royal family of Muffakam Jah.

Karl, Some pics of the wheel caps please. I have taken the responsibility of finding some missing parts for it. And yeah let me know if you can give away those wheel caps to me the owner is ready to pay fancy rates for the missing parts.

Just kidding, but seriously, they are too precious for me, and will go on one of my cars one day.

Practically unlimited fancy rates. I say this because the owner of TV is rich enough to pay the fancy rates as he has paid a very fancy rate for the car. He is a renowned Vintage car collector in Bangalore and he is in this profession for the last decade.

Sorry, they are packed up and sealed and not stored at home. Whenever I see them I shall take photos for you. The fitting is the same as other wheelcaps of the era. Does the Bangalore car have original wheels? Any front end and engine bay pictures? Does it have twin carbs?

I am yet to meet the owner, I will try to meet him today, BTW arun has posted pictures of cars with the select / elegent wheel caps. Which one is correct.
