Phil,
I agree - not anywhere near concourse, but nice, none the less.
I was actually kidding Gary a bit. He has made mention of wanting one in
great shape. But I have never seen a TR6 I would pay 35K for! Even this
one.
BTW, what IS that red thing behind the overflow bottle.

Sorry, but I don't agree. For $35,000 the car better be exactly right
and it's not. Weber carbs, big honkin' amp in the trunk and rear
speakers, leather upholstery (!!), aftermarket wheel, missing eyeball
vents, missing windscreen trim finisher, absence of rear fender
decals, wrong wheel centers, Sunfast top (as nice as they are, it's
not original-spec).....
The claim that the car is concours quality is just plain wrong.
