<span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: 12pt;">I agree. If I had the time and energy, I'd snatch these cars up. Too many cars and too little time. I've known of these cars for a few months, but didn't want to share them widely until I had a chance to see them myself. I think they good cars and the engines sound great with the handling setup fully sorted. They started instantly and ran crisp and clean, revved easy and set to idle perfectly. They need tires and new seat belts. Other than that, I'd say they are ready to go and would sure fit in a few vintage organizations, VARA being one of them, without much effort. Although they are with lots of race patina, they are rust free and the frames are apparently in great condition. </span>

<span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: 12pt;">The Spit has GT6 brakes and front suspension and GT6 gearbox, special rear axles and 4 link with the standard leaf spring arrangement. The TR6 has Jag brakes on the front, close ratio TR6 box. The TR6 has both crank fire and distributor in place and can be switched to distributor for cold starting. Both have welded diffs. </span>

<span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: 12pt;">The TR6 has a set of earlier rounded flared fenders. Two new spare crank shafts and a bunch of other good spares. Spit has spare body panels, blocks, heads, pistons...all kinds of stuff. All spares are well organized, neatly boxed and clearly marked. </span>

<span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: 12pt;">I've been connected with a retired racer that is selling his cars. That racer is Don McCoy. The cars are in Half Moon Bay, California. </span>

<span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: 12pt;">I went to see the cars today and I told Don I'd share them with you all. I think the cars are terrific. They are work horse racers with lots of patina, but they are well developed and put together with excellent components and are basically ready to race. </span>
</div>
<div style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: helvetica,arial,sans-serif; color: #333333;" class="x_default-style">
<span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: 12pt;">Don completely went through the drivetrains and brakes to refresh them for sale. They haven't been raced since around 2001. Both cars were cold started and I was impressed. They both fired immediately and sounded great. No fuss or smoke. </span>

<div style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: helvetica,arial,sans-serif; color: #333333;" class="x_default-style">
The TR6 originally came out of Pennsylvania and Lanky Forshee helped set up the front suspension. Don ran the car competitively against Lee Muller here on the west coast.

Don is asking $15K for the TR6 and $5K for the Spitfire. Spares included. Body panels, drivetrain components, wheels and misc. Also, radio communications for both cars. His asking price seems very reasonable to me. I have no financial interest.
</div>
<div style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: helvetica,arial,sans-serif; color: #333333;" class="x_default-style">
I have cold start video of both cars.
