Tilly, my TR-6, is running great.  Since fixing the gas tank
blockage we have gone out alot, cruised the beaches, etc...
Plan to take Tilly over the Laguna Mountains, well they are as much
mountain as we have in real-Southern Calif, this weekend and
check into the Jacumba Spa & Resort, for a little R&R.
Will wind up being a 200 mile round trip; I already have my duct
tape and wire in Tilly.

But I have been thinking, hmmm???  I have enough garage space
for another LBC, but with Power.  Maybe a TR-8?  So what
is the net wisdom re TR-8's?  Price range for an average one??
What years to look for or avoid?  What problems to look for or 
avoid?

Since I have never driven one, can I expect significantly more
exciting performance than with Tilly?  (I STILL love that TR-6
exhaust note!)

Appreciation potential?

Nick
