TR6 Got that 395,000 mile feeling

Congratulations. Quite an acheivement. Two questions--1) how many times have you rebuilt the engine and 2) how many times have you rebuilt the seat. That is a lot of hours spent in that car.

We Thank You Charley, lots of hours equates to miles of smiles/good times, looking to clock minimum 1/2 million same TR6.
