My Father in Law has sent his 76 TR6 to a local resorer to get some spring time touch ups done. The Car was restored in the late 90's and has been garaged and driven very little each summer. I think me and my wife thave taken it out more over the last couple of years than anyone. He is having the bumbers recromed, fluids changed, new exaust, a amplifier installed and new speakers with the origanal radio referbed to look origanal, Carbs rebuilt, Electronic ignition installed and the seat is being repared so you can move it and lock it into position so you can drive it and not need pillows! (my wife is 5'3" Tall) I hope this all means it will be used more. I have attached pictures of it so you guys can see it in its current state. I hope to take it in June to the British Car day show in Concord NC.

Thanks,
He has put alot of work in it. I hope my Gt6 comes out just as nice. I feel kinda weird showing and telling about someone elses car, but I figured you guys would just apreciate a person perserving a piece of automotive history. Weather it be me or someone I know. If I could ever get my 53 Chevy finished I would get started on my GT6! But i'm sure you fellow gear heads understand all the head aches with final assembly!
