Hello from W. Salem, Wisconsin! I had to wait 40 years to obtain the only car I really ever wanted. I now own a one owner pimento/black '76 TR6. It was all original with 45,000 miles. I have spent the last 4 years doing a body-on restoration (most of the work done by others). I do as much as I can myself but have neither the knowledge or tools to do major work. So far: rebuilt engine with GP2 cam, bored cylinders w/ new pistons and valves/hardened seats etc., HVDA 5 speed w/ Toyota tranny, new propeller shaft, Nissan R200 dif., GP rear CV shafts/hubs, front suspension totally rebuilt w/ upgraded GP parts and SPAX shocks, new AAW wiring harness, new GM alternator, new Robbins upgraded hood (top), rebuilt distributor w/ electronic ignition, new fuel pump, newly restored and calibrated gauges (LED lighted), all lights converted to LED's (except headlights), LED halos on headlights, GP adjustable trailing arm brackets and new rear springs, new Armstrong rear lever shocks, GP tuned header w/ new pipes to muffler, new rosewood dash, Lolita wood steering wheel, SCCA designed rollbar and many other GP parts and other parts too numerous to mention. Now I am starting to save for a new John Skinner interior. Never in a hundred years would I have thought I would put so much money in this car, but I love it! It is sweet running car that is always garaged and only driven in dry weather!
