Part of his space was rented to a car restorer who upped and out about 3 years ago. Joe’s lawyer tells him he can now clear the area out and that anything left is his.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>I visited him yesterday and picked up some TR3 sheetmetal.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>He has a TR3 there – just a tub on a frame. I think it is a TR3A as there are a couple of wide-mouth aprons lying around, but the rear seat area is sloped. So maybe a 1959? No title or vin. The tub has some rust (holes) in the floors and dog-legs but the sills themselves appear to be solid, so it would be a good restoration candidate. The rear fenders are on the car and there are various panels lying around. The car is on what appears to be a good frame but no wheels. I told him the tub and frame could be worth $1200 if some of the panels were thrown in.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>There is also a TR4 which isn’t particularly rusted but has seen better days. The driver’s side appears to have been side-swiped as it is pretty beat-up. But it is an intact car, again with some panels lying around. Frame appears solid. Maybe $600 ?<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>For what it’s worth, there is also what appears to be a fairly solid bug-eyed sprite and a Porsche (not a 911 or anything I recognized).<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Joe is looking to clear the space, but does not want to be inundated with tire-kickers. So if anyone is genuinely interested, contact me off-line and I will give you his contact information. No financial interest whatsoever.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Andrew Uprichard<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Jackson, Michigan<o:p></o:p></p></div></body></html>
