Description:

This is a running driving car with many dollars just spent on her. I will make every effort to detail everything about the car so all interested will be fully informed prior to bidding. This is you chance to get a great running TR6 with rare factory overdrive at a low price. Selling to the highest bidder this week.

Mechanicals: The car runs great and drives well. Car starts right up with no smoke or engine noises and holds great oil pressure. At the end of May of this year the car was serviced and the additional work was preformed: New clutch, New pressure plate, New clutch slave cylinder, New front brake calipers, New front brake pads, New front brake hoses and a New starter was installed ( all this was not cheap I can assure you ). Note: I'm taking the car to the shop on Monday to have the rear muffler hanger replaced. Overdrive: Yes this car has the rare and highly sought after factory overdrive transmission. This is a true factory overdrive cars as seen in its vin number. I need to replace the overdrive relay switch which I'm hoping to have done prior to auctions end. Exterior: The car shows well in the photos and presents herself well in person but as you can see she does need a paint job. The body is very straight with no dings or dents. Car sits evenly and squarely on the ground with no visible signs of leaning or sagging. Soft Top: The soft is usable but does have one small tear which should be an easy repair using the extra fabric that comes with the car. Covers: Car comes with a top cover and a full cockpit / Tonneau cover as seen in the photos. Trunk: The trunk is rock solid. Has original jack and spare tire. Underbody: The underbody is in good condition. The frame, floors and inner sills look original and solid.

In Closing: The above description is my observations and opinions and they very from person to person so ask all questions prior to bidding. If I have missed anything in the cars description it was not my intention so please ask for as much detail as you need to make an informed decision on the car prior to bidding. Again, this is in need of some restoration as seen in the photos. I'm not an expert and my opinion of the car may vary from yours so please look at the photos closely and if you need more information or the extra photos I have available please ask prior to bidding. I know how hard it is to purchase a car online so please ask any and all questions you have prior to bidding or if you can come see and drive the car for yourself ( I really encourage you to do so ) as I want the winning bidder to be satisfied with the car when it arrives. Due to the cars age and having no way to warranty the car I'm selling her as is. A $500 non-refundable deposit is due within 48 hours of auctions end.
