For Sale 1958 TR3 Partout

With a very heavy heart I've decided to part out my TR3 project. I knew the body needed a LOT of work, but after I moved it this last time I found out that the frame is rusted through down both sides.
A lot of parts are rusted enough to be considered unusable but others would be able to be cleaned up and restored. I've attached photos of how it sits and can of course send more detailed photos if anyone is interested in parts.
I have the original engine and transmission as well as everything shown in the photos.
I do have brand new parts as well: floor pans and inner sills (driver side has been tacked in place but can be removed).

Let me know what you need! I'd rather the parts go to a good home than sit around and rust more.

Willing to ship - buyer pays shipping. Located in Henderson, NV (just outside of Las Vegas)

Joe- must be a terrible disappointment for you.

An idea: keep some of the car with you, as a memory of your Dad.

Thanks Tom, it was a very hard decision but I think for the best at this point.
I am keeping a few things for the other TR3 we have :smile:

Used frames are available, if the eventual owner of your car wants to save it
Hi groupdeville, I did look into this but it's at a point where it would need a new frame as well as a new body. Seems like if I'm doing that I might as well just buy a different car :-(
