Back from the dead

A young guy at work started driving this lately after reviving it. This TR6 hadn’t been driven in 9 years. The short list of things needed were fresh fuel, some hoses, oil , TLC and new clutch hydraulic bits. He loves it, however some of his peers can’t see the attraction. The car belonged to his dad who I’m sure is thrilled to see his old roadster running again. Other than still needing some new redline tires and refreshing the brakes its in pretty fair condition.

Always loved the TR6 since I once owned an early TR4. Karmann did a awesome restyling of the original Michelotti design which made this model so attractive and one of the best sellers of the TR models.
