You could jack up one rear wheel, and with the trans in 4th, turn the wheel by
hand. Or, if you have the room, push the whole car forward a few inches in 4th
gear. But I think most people just hit the starter for a second (easy on a TR3
with the button on the solenoid, don't know if TR6's have that or not).
