Well I've been patiently waiting to take ownership of my new 1976 TR6(Boricua).....So far I am very pleased with the car, I got it early this morning and spent the day getting reaquainted with the TR6...I scrubbed the top and did my best to clear up the windows,Got through polishing half the paint on the car(it took a a wet sanding and 6 different grades of compounds/waxes to bring the shine back) I'll do the other half tomorrow after the ancaster show...It still needs alot of cleaning, the engine compartment has NEVER been touched and is extremely dirty, the interior will need a good scrubbing, the wheels need painting and numerous other little repairs must be made.
Aside from the rear end 'clunk' I posted about earlier the car is mechanically very good, starts first crank, no smoke, pulls strong, and sounds great! Redlines have almost no wear...I am really happy! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/driving.gif
These pics where taken just after I got it home, before any work was done....it looks way better now, just with the few hours of work I got in today....I even put the union jack stickers back on(I had some from days gone by) and just that made a huge difference.
Sorry about the poor picture quality...it was early and I wanted to get to work, so I kinda rushed the pics.
