TR6 Can finally drive the TR6 with a steering wheel

Only crept out at night with the wooden steering wheel and after market wooden shift knob.

But with the help of Ebay and TRF, we're in business now baby.

The PO liked all that wood stuff, I'm more into original.

Someone already took it off my hands. It took all of 2 Ebay hours. But you are welcome to a free deluxe wooden shift knob with the Triumph shield. Feels like you're shifting a cue ball.

Thanks anyway Stirkle:

DPO Pedro had one of them "deluxe wooden shift
knob with the Triumph shield. Feels like you're
shifting a cue ball."

That was one of the very first things I replaced on
the Crypt Car.

No, I didn't need to. I think the PO thought that a wood wax was needed on this dash. It had a dirty sort of light oily film that came off pretty easily with Fantastik cleaner. Back to that nice satin finish.
