[Fot] TR2/3 stuff for auction this Saturday in Lancaster, OH

Thu Jun 11 21:57:55 MDT 2020

Wow!  Those prices are way below give-away prices.  I think you meant front apron, not cowl?  A usable/repairable apron is worth at least $500.  Repops, when available, are $3,000 from Moss.  Two dozen fenders for $7?  That's insane!  Good for you.  Nice that they went to good homes.

Must have been several hundred people in attendance with two auctioneers working at the same time to get through all of the items in 1 day.  I would not say Joe was a TR parts hoarder but he certainly had a ton of pieces and parts he accumulated over the years.  Plus lots of memorabilia from the TRA events he organized.  Probably a dozen or so people interested in the TR items and the bidding was very active.  Prices were reasonable and I scored some very good deals.  How about a wide mouth TR3 cowl in near perfect condition for $200?  TR3 complete engine for $50.  A-type OD for $37.  I left with two dozen fenders and other body panels for $7.  It was worth the 3 hours drive.  Dottie still has the beautiful black TR3 that Joe restored for her.  Probably worth close to $40K.
