Today I discovered that the car runs MUCH better after a longer drive. After about 15 or 20 minutes the car slowly started running well. By the time I got to work, the choke knob was almost all the w

I'm letting a "real" mechanic work on my baby. It had sat in the garage for 3 months waiting for me to find time to get it going. Luckily, there is a guy with a great reputation 3 miles from my house

I recently purchased a choke cable from TRF. While installing it, I noticed that the cables are made of twisted strands of wire. The old one had solid wires. Stranded wire cables cannot "push" very

Thanks John, I think you've found the problem. Even though my car is a '73, it apparently had ( and needs ) the cable for a '74+. The PO made extensive "modifications". There's another $45 down the t

My '73 TR6 is finally ready for a radio. Does anyone have any suggestions? Nothing I've seen looks like it will fit. I'd like a cassette player so that I can use my XM radio with a car kit... but th

On further inspection, the spindle moves in and out. So, the bearings are probably ok. It's never the easiest thing with this car. The trailing arm looks solid. I couldn't get the philips head screws

I have a 73 TR6. The PO did a frame off restoration and the car looks good. This is the first LBC I've owned so, even though I'm ok with a wrench, I'm in uncharted waters. The problem is that the cho
