Re: rate this one

Greetings Gardener !!

Welcome to the sometimes wacky but always friendly
world of the BCF Triumph guys.

I'm looking forward to seeing a real TR6 and
meeting you as well. It is a bit of a BCF tradition
to drink a cold one at the Biker bar outside of Dorado.
What will the poor Bikers think when they see two of us?

regards,

<span style="color: #990000">The hood is latched but still Pedro-ized.
I replaced all the latch components with new after this photo
was taken. </span>

Wendy's feet do not reach the pedals. But the gal in the
photo is Wendy's tall friend Lucy, who drove a TR4 for
many years. Lucy enjoyed her drive of the Crypt Car.

PS Gardener- I've been quoted $15,000. to paint my red car
the same color red. If you find a decent shop that will charge
less than $15,000. to change the paint color of your car, please let me know.

regards,

dale

Welcome Gardner.
These cars though sometimes frustrating are worlds of fun. I think the frustration can sweeten the fun. You will find lots of help here and you have a great neighbor.
Enjoy!
 
Dale,

This may be a dumb question, but why in the world do you want to have your car repainted? It looks great.
 
Hello Gardner,

"Welcome" to the "BCF" from the Pocono Mtns of PA.

Just a word of caution. Don`t let your TR get too close to Dales TR6. Something just may rub-off & you won`t like it.

Have Fun Anyways,

Russ
 
thanks you all!!,Russ last time I was in PA a deer scares me to death, I was coming back from Dorney park at night and 2 of 3 deer run from the center of the road and the third wait until I was close,and hit my SUV in the back panel and desapears in the dark.My brother lives in Woodbridge,NJ

Darn, Dale....these people see you coming....you could ship the car to me...I could have it painted & shipped back to you for way less than that!

Re: rate this one

Welcome Gardener!

Now there's at least two shiny red TR6s in PR!

Say, how did Miracle run and drive when you checked it out back before you bought it? Any problems?
