TR2/3/3A Gotta move this TR2

[Banjo]

This poor old project is still sitting here.
I've been working with an overseas buyer for over two months. It's dragging out, and I'm losing patients. I need this space, and the money to get other things rolling around here.
It's at an offer of $4200 for everything. it's all packed up and ready to roll on to your trailer.
I'd entertain any offer in the neighborhood of the one I have now as long as it included this thing being moved within two weeks.
It's all or nothing. I'm not keeping any of the parts I have.

I currently have no paperwork, but I can (And will) obtain it for the buyer, legally, through New York state DMV, but it may take a month or two to get the papers back.
PM me if interested.

Sorry, Banjo. Seems like a good price to me; but you're so far away from me and I have no place to keep it anyway.

And I already have way too many projects!

Banjo you may want to get in touch with the TR2 TR3 person at VTR. I know he looks for TR2s for people in Europe. I don't remember his name though.

 

[Banjo]

I listed it on VTR, and that's where the guy that I've been dealing with found it.
He's in the UK. I'm not saying anything either way except that it's been 2 months and still nothing has progressed much.
My frustration level with this whole thing is rather high right now, so I need to tread lightly.
If nothing solid comes through here, next I'll put it on craigslist. Then I guess it'll be evilbay.

=( If I wasn't up to my eyebrows in this Hathaway Hunter project, I'd be all over it, and drive out with a trailer to pick it up. I hope it finds a good and worthy home.

If you would have had the title work it would be gone already! My be even by me. My suggestion is get that paperwork now or at lease started.

 

[Banjo]

TR3ATR250, You are very correct. I still have some interest, and hope. I wish I had just gone to get the papers years back like I meant to. It's a simple process here, just time consuming. N.Y. issues a transferable registration to any car older than 72. I can go down tonight and get a non-transferable registration, but then they send it off to the state, review it, and send me the transferable one when they decide everything is OK. (anywhere up to 90 days) I am starting the process now to get those papers. it's all up to the DMV from here.

I thought you had already passed this on.

Does it have the engine and gearbox with it? I have a guy that may very well be interested.

 

[Banjo]

I've been trying to pass it on... hehehe. It'll happen in it's time I guess.
BRSLimited,
I have 2 engines, one from a TR3 with a high port head and SU carbs, and one from a 66 TR4A with Stromberg carbs.
The only bit I have from the original TR2 engine is the low-port head and intake manifold along with the painted valve cover.
Both engines I have are in boxes and will need rebuilds. Unfortunately that's the way I got them.
I also have 2 gearboxes. One from the TR4A that is good, and one from an early 3 (has the dipstick) that is missing a tooth on the countershaft.
This is admittedly a major project car.
