Hello again everybody!
The last time I wrote I was looking for a light nacelle/bucket for my left
front fender for my 74 TR6. Fortunately somebody out there (Chad Jester) is
going to send me the part I need. I've just finished doing my very first
complete paint job on my Dad's TR6. I painted it Porsche "Speed Yellow" the
same one you see in the commercial with the two German engineers at the ATM
machine testing the new 911 Turbo at Nurenburg race track. It looks Awesome!
As I've written before, I've changed the U-Joints ant several other
mechanical pieces. My father is now ready to send the car to get some
mechanical engine work done. It sounds like one of the valves are sticking
on cylinder number 6, probably the exhaust valve. Anyways, I know for a fact
that the engines already been rebuilt once and that was over 50K ago, and
cost almost $2000 6 years ago. I'm trying to talk my dad into dropping a new
motor into the car. I've heard of Rover V8 swapouts on an MG and also rumors
a a 3 litre Buick V6. Does any of this sound right to you? I would really
like some feedback from anybody whom has visited this scenairo before.
Thanks, in Advance!
Sebastien Aubouin.
