Hello all,

On a recently acquired 1976 TR6, I'm noticing a good bit of grinding going
into 3rd gear, especially on downshifts.  A friend said it could be bad
synchros, or just the possibility that shifting on cars of this era is more
like an art.  Any opinions?  Is grinding common on TR6's?  I hope it's an easy
fix, but I know transmission repairs can be expensive.  Appreciate any
feedback/suggestions you may have.

Thanks!!
Ted
