     Folks,
     
     Ya, I know, it's kind of a strange request.  
     The short explanation:  
     I'm planning to have the remains of my '73 TR6 parts donor taken to 
     an 'auto recycling center'<SNIFF>.  Its only got 3 hubs (the forth 
     was almost new and I installed it on my good car). I've got 4 wires 
     but still need a way to roll the car to the flatbed or tow truck. 
     (Unless those guys can figure a way to drag the darn thing up on 
     the truck.)
     
     A little more:
     Don't get too excited - the '73 is (or will be) only a rusted frame 
     and body with wheels.  I'm in the process of removing the entire 
     engine and drivetrain, glass etc. as spares for my '72.  
     
     The wires are original Dunlop with at least 180K miles on them, one 
     was spun, the rest were just barely hanging on.  Its been sitting 
     for 5 years, little is left that's worth anything.  The trailing 
     arm attachment points have been crudely patched, but have rusted 
     through again.  All inner and outer fenders have significant rust, 
     bumpers are peeling, seat frames, doors, bonnet, boot might be 
     restorable.
     
     Anyone wanting anything should let me know in the next month or so, 
     you pay only shipping for anything you want.  Or, come on over and 
     tow the whole mess away.
     
     Hate to see it go, but with the '72 finished, I'm moving on to my 
     next (non-LBC) project: '67 Chevy C-10, short bed stepside, 
     350/4spd,airbag suspension.
     
     So, if anyone has a bad wire wheel hub they want to sell, let me 
     know.
     
     Thanks,
     Rick
