Dear Sir
I really enjoyed reading the story of your TR6 restoration on the
Internet. I recently fulfilled a dream and bought a 1973 TR6PI. The car was
extensively rebuilt 2 years ago - new panels and engine rebuild. However,
the previous owner did not finish the job - so I have some work do do over
the winter months. The interior is scruffy, and some sensible modifications
are planned - Bosch fuel pump, new metering unit etc. The latter is needed
because England goes lead free on 1/1/2000. Lead free melts the seals in the
metering unit!
I wonder if you would be willing/able to give me some advice. The side
windows will not close. The leading edge hits the screen pillar when three
quarters shut. Can I adjust the side window fit, or can I only solve the
problem by adjusting the screen frame rake? I am concerned that the hood
will not longer fit if I do the latter.
Regards
