Hey folks...just joined and thought I'd say hi! I FINALLY got my machine...it's a 1975 TR6, and I figured I'd better get it while I'm still single and have little-to-no responsibility. It's been in storage for 15 years, but is all original...76,000 miles, working overdrive. There's some cosmetic rust to deal with, but the floors, bonnet and boot compartments, and the frame are all fantastic. She's running rough, and best of all I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT I'M DOING!!! The snow's flying today in Toronto (Car's actually at my parent's place in Ottawa...good thing cuz I'd probably quit my job to work on it if it were here...then how would I pay for parts?!) so I'll likely have to wait until spring to do anything substantive with it. I think the starting point will be a tune up and a new exhaust.
If anyone's got some advice from a beginer's perspective, I'd love to hear some words of encouragement! Bottom line: I'm happy with the car and really looking forward to learning about them.
Cheers.
