For it's age.... if it's been driven that little, it will need as much =
work as any car with 59K on it!
(well maybe 30-40K)
with no oil throw, the internals of the engine (cam lobes etc) will most =
assuredly have rust on them, along with any other unoiled bare metal.
It's inevitable with any heat/cool cycle of the environment. All rubber =
will be hard and the seat foams ready to fall apart.
Yes.... crack pipe price.... but someone will by it just as a show piece =
which it could be with little effort cosmetically anyway.
Would I drive it cross state...no way. Doubt even across town. thinks =
what the brake flied must be like.

    Is $59k a bit much for an allegedly mint TR6?
