    Mainly TR6's. I am now down to one of them now, I have totally restored five of them three to concours condition, the rest were to a high standard, restoring them mainly by myself. All information and photos about my TR6s' and the restoration of them are on my websites www.tr6pi.com www.tr6pi.co.uk Also on the site is a buyers guide which hopefully will help potential buyers of their TR6 with a little advice.

    Hi Dave, I see from an older post that you fitted a top tinted windshield to a TR6. I just wanted to know if this was the one supplied by Moss and if you had any problems with its fitment.

    Thanks!

      Hi,

      Regarding the top tint screen. Yes it was purchased from Moss and it was fairly easy to install, really takes two people, one to push the glass and the other to pull the corded seal out on to the screen.

      I hope this helps.

      Kind regards,

      Dave from Spain

      i take it that you had new liners fitted correctly this time then.was it a good outcome with the company that first did the job .

      Hi Roy, They expressed no concern over the fact, in my opinion, they took too much metal of the block before inserting the sleeves. As it was 14 years ago it was out off warranty. Not interested.

    I have had my dropped liner and the other 5 taken out and the engine block re sleeved with lipped liners. All the parts re assembled and now it is running. Just needs final tweeking.

    My TR6 is now completely finished. It has now a Spanish Historic vehicle registration plate. Only took 4 months to do. Beautiful warm sunny day, took it out for a 40 kms furthest the engine has run in the last 25 years.
