All right, I've got quite a bit of time to type out the specifics of that infuriating trip to Canada, so here it is. The car is a 1973 TR6 owned by JP LaCroix of Ottawa, Ontario. It is chassis racing

<< 1500 total miles with an empty U-Haul tow dolly, slapping around the road at 70mph is mind numbing. What is more mind numbing is to know that someone can this blatantly misrepresent a vehicle. Kai

That reminds me of the 1975 BMW 2002 from California I saw sitting at an Ohio garage for several long winter months. The owner wanted double what it was worth (as a rust-free body shell) because the

Great stories. I acquired my TR6 last spring, after talking about it for a loooong time. I started my search in the usual place, the local paper. I contacted the owner, and asked all the usual quest

2 years ago when I started looking for my car, the folks on this list were *extremely* helpful. In fact, one of the primary reasons I joined the club was the value I gained from the Surrogate Buyer p

Personal opinion, but I think it's hard to overpay for a completely rust-free car. Rust repair is very expensive, a pain in the butt and very intrusive (Is a formerly rusty car ever really the same

After reading about these cars I feel really good. My car was represented as "not having been driven (or run) for at least 5 years", and "what you see is what you get". What I got was a small rust ho

Here's another story about a TR6 to watch out for that is currently for sale... The former home of the TR6 I eventually bought, after a year of searching, was in a private community outside of Ft. Wo

I spent 8 months looking for my TR6 after I decided that was the car I wanted to buy. I only drove two as I could screen out what I didn't want over the phone pretty quickly, which I realize was luck

I can top that. There is a '75 green TR6 for sale at the local British garage. 20,000 miles, one owner, all original. I could not find one item that was not factory on the car. It is gorgeous, and o

I was told by someone that a car from costal areas are more to worry about then cars from Canada. If the car was never taken out in the winter, chances are the frame and body are in pretty good shape
