Definitely a BR 3. The BR 8 distributors started in August 54.
If anyone locates a BR2, I'd take that as well

BR8's had wire clips as standard until at least Oct 55 / 56 year model. I haven't figured out when they stopped using the wire.

Found one! - cost an arm and three legs though
I got it rebuild by Ed Fall - the man produces exceptional work. I was gobsmacked when it arrived, considering how average it looked to start
with!
