Took a drive thru the central Connecticut countryside yesterday and came
across a TR7 coupe for sale. Sitting in a farmer's field, it looked as
though it had been there for some time. Opened the bonnet and saw quite
a bit of rust on it and the nose of the car. Driver's door has a rather
large dent w/ some rust there as well. Interior was rather a shambles.
Don't know the first thing about TR7s, but it appeared to be all there.
Sitting in tall grass with a sprinkling of poison ivy around, so I
didn't crawl under to take a look.
Sign (a very OLD sign) said $500, but no phone number. Registration
sticker on license plate was so old it had faded to the point where I
couldn't tell when it was last on the road, but I'd guess quite a while.
Looks like quite a project to restore, but I've seen worse. Might make a
good parts car. If anyone's interested, I'll try to get a phone number
for you.
