I own a TR-6. I can't afford to run it until I no longer have to pay child support, in about 4 years. I did not sell it and won't. I was never interested in racing or changing the car to "improve" t

If you happen to still have the original jack, you will need access through the large plugged hole to insert the jack and hook it into the special bracket on the frame. I only had to do it once, when

I think it is called trimming the antenna. If I remember correctly, you tune the radio to the weakest station you can find at the 550 end of the dial and then turn the adjusting screw, which is usual

Why not wire brush them. A soft wire brush will get them shiny but not glossy, and will get into various edges without polishing away a lot of metal. Ron L

My fellow collectors and I see these kinds of E-bay scams quite frequently for Antique phonographs. A seller either hijacks another's ebay identity and then copies pictures of a machine from a websit

This is way off topic but I know the wisdom of the list is vast and your experience far reaching. I need to remove the radio/tape player from a '99 Mercury Sable. Anyone know how to go about it? FWIW

I owned a 1958 TR 3 from 1968 to 1971. I don't ever remember it running hot except when the coolant slushed up from lack of antifreeze. Nor do I remember the battery discharging in the winter when he

Actually, the 3 had anti freeze in it, just not enough to cover the sub zero temps of an unusually cold winter that year. My night time winter driving was mainly highway, 60 mph or more, coming home

Don't sell it. Park it and start it every month or so, drive it up and down the driveway and park it again. I did that to my '73 TR-6 for years and am doing it again until child support payments end.
