[Fot] 1970 TR6 with original overdrive

[finishing Touch]

I recently purchased a 1970 TR6 that had been sitting in a shed in 
Maryland for 15 years and was in very rusty condition. The owner had 
died a while back and a local ‘car guy’ was selling it for the owner’s 
widow. My intentions were to rebuild the motor for a backup for my race 
car and salvage whatever other parts I could for backups, trading, etc. 
To my surprise when I got it home, it had a type ‘A’ overdrive in it, 
and I subsequently learned that the Vin number ending in “L O”  is 
apparently an original factory left hand drive unit with a factory 
overdrive.

I was told these cars are sought after by some collectors, and it would 
be ashamed to end its life. I have the car mostly disassembled and have 
no intentions to personally restore it, but thought if someone is 
interested in purchasing it as a “Whole” for restoration purposes, we 
can probably work something out; otherwise I am going to follow through 
with my original plan.

The car has a Maryland title, matching serial number ‘CC 5***6 L O’ on 
the windscreen and door plate. It also includes the original motor and 
‘A’ Type gearbox. It would need a complete restoration and many new 
parts.If there is any interest please contact me and I’ll answer any 
questions you may have.

Thanks and Merry Christmas to all,

Mike Kurtz
