Which way to point a "Wanna-be"?
We live in a small town Northern California and enjoy having 5 of us run around with the 1955 -62 side screens. One of the group is just about finished with a ground up restoration of a TR6.
Just met a new fellow that moved to town who has fallen in love with the side screens and thinks he would like to get one.
First thing I asked is if he would like to restore a car or buy a finished product. "Not very mechanical....better look for a finished car". We all are willing to help...and we do have a pretty good British Car man here in town...but think it might be better to lead him into a TR6. I know where one is sitting that has been totally gone thru and probably can be had for a pretty good deal. Although every situation is different...how does my logic sound to you? Input sought. Thanks, Gil NoCal
