Guys,
my prospective seller has me spooked. Here's the deal. I'm going to look at
a 73 TR6 this weekend, and while giving me directions, his e-mail said "by
the way, be sure to trailer it home if you buy it, remember it's a 25-year
old car."
It's only 2 hours away, and I'm looking at presumably a professionally
restored car in top condition.
I questioned what he meant, and he said "I meant that the
car probably shouldn't be driven at high speed on the interstate for a
prolonged period of time. You will want to have the oil changed when you get
it just for your own piece of mind, and maybe tune it up but other than that
it is a great driver."
My intention is to find a car that I can drive almost daily, except in bad
weather. When I'm not driving, it will be kept in a garage, and maintained
religiously. Should I be concerned about this, or is this the same advice
you guys would give a new owner that has never owned one of these before?
Remember, this isn't going to sit in a museum, I want to drive it.
Thanks for any thoughts...
Mark Creamer
