Hi all
We are running a Classic Car Show at this time in the Netherlands
and have a TR4 displayed at our stand. The car is a top restoration
(all panels perfectly aligned and all gaps straight) The car is not for
sale at any price, but to make it short a gentleman offered without
hesitation 37000$ at first sight. Prices like this are no exeption. My
70 TR6 PI in my possession since 73 has been rebuild 2 years ago
to very good standard,no concours, all together including overhaul
and improvement of all mechanical and suspension parts the
rebuild costs ranged around 25000$. The EFI took another 5500$.
The body was in very good condition and was not off the chassis
but most spot welding points have been replaced by a continuous
weld.I have been offered more than one time 35000$+ but the car is
not for sale either .
Don't forget that even a new 50 miles stored TR6 will require at
least an investment of around 5000$ to get it roadworthy again and
this is no joke, if not engine and drivetrain will seize in no time.
