Hello All,
I'm new to TR's and to this list. I'm keenly interested in getting
hold of a TR6 in the near future. I'm hoping to find one that runs
reasonably well but that can use a little work (ie, I'd like to keep
the cost down to around $3K :) I enjoy working on cars (that I don't
HAVE to drive to work the next day...) and am a big Weber fan, so I'd
like to eventually do a rebuild with one or more 40 DCOE's, a nice
street cam and an Ansa or similar exhaust. I used to tinker around
with Hondas, so I've got some experience with this kind of work.
Before jumping into the TR6 world, though, I'd like to learn a bit
about them. I've been cruising the Web a little and have been able to
pick up some info. It sounds as if VTR is a great way to get to know
the cars and the people who love them. Is anyone on this list a
member of the Washington, DC area chapter? If so, is there a number I
can call to find out more info? Are there any meetings or events
planned for the month of July? Is there anyone with a TR6 who'd
entertain a short visit from an interested newbie? (I'd promise not
to drool on the leather... :) Does anyone have an old Bentley's
manual they'd like to sell? (I consider that type of thing to be good
reading...)
On the techie nerd side, does anyone know of a reader tool that can be
used to cruise through the digest files? (ie, be able to jump to a
particular message, search for a subject or key word in the file, etc,
etc...) If not, and if you have any ideas for one, let me know, as I
might whip something up myself. (Yes, that's right, I'm a
professional computer geek... :)
Thanks much for any and all info and help!!!
