Cash flow problems forced me to sell the Midget this weekend...boy, she was
a mint too....got $3500 for her, and she's staying in town, so at least
I still get to see her (and probably work on it too...the guy who bought
it was full of enthusiasm, but lacked lbc skills).
w/ my new source of liquidity, I immediately went out and made an offer on
a tasty little GT6 I've nbeen eyeing for the past two weeks. Always fancied
either a GT or TR6. Anyway. I got a 1970 GT6+ for $775 w/ a 1973 motor w/
unknown miles.
Good things:
Compression good, oil pressure v. good
good body...bondo work prevelent, but not bad...in primer needs paint
frame rust/crack free
those nice slotted aluminum wheels come with
Bad things:
Clutch rusted to flywheel....tryed all the usual pop the clutch methods...
I'll take the tranny of tonight and free it
carbs need a rebuild
Hey for under $800 I can't complain. There are no weird whines or clunks,
but I imagine it's got over 100k on it.
