Folks:
After much careful rumination (no, that is not Carry Nation's alcoholic
brother), I have decided that I will probably never finish the
restoration of my TR3A project and I am, therefore, offering the whole
shebang for sale. It consists of:
1) The car - complete but in the very early stages of disassembly.
However, by simply putting the wheels back on it can be rolled onto a
trailer. It is a post 60000 car and needs new floors on both sides, new
fender patch panels and some repair work to the vertical front panels of
the rear seat/parcel shelf. Of course it will need new paint. The
frame appears to be solid and I rebuilt the front suspension and
installed new rear shocks many years (but only few thousand miles) ago.
2) The following additional parts:
a) a new set of 2.2 liter liners and pistons
b) a reground crankshaft with crank and rod bearings
c) a replacement camshaft of unknown lift or duration. I
was told that it might be a "mild street" cam
d) a lightened flywheel, sold to me by Joe Alexander
e) a 4 into 2 into 1 exhaust manifold
f) A solid hood (post 60000)
g) a solid front apron, also post 60000
h) An overdrive gearbox, supposedly in working condition,
although I have never installed it so I cannot say
i) Two extra sets of wire wheels (used). These are both
60 spoke, while the wheels on the car are the original 48 spoke
j) a few other odds and ends
I think the whole package is worth maybe $5,000 to $6,000 and would be
willing to consider offers in that range. I believe the additional
parts are probably worth half of that amount, alone.
I have no interest in selling parts of the package - it is all or
nothing. The car is in Plainfield, IL, and if you are interested in
looking at it, please contact me directly at michaelmarr5258@comcast.net
Mike
