Must love it.. Landed there in the fall and hasn't moved since! The dragonfly on the shed, same thing, been hanging around there for 15 years or so.. Get's the afternoon sun. graham

I must be looking around the wrong corner!

nice one!!

Waldi, i have no idea of the origin, and I hope not to cause offence, but it relates to purchasing something, and two people pay half each. It is also a term used when two people go out for dinner, and they each pay their own bill, or split the bill. graham

Any chance of it being an exhaust leak at a joint? Graham

Should have rotated the tires (tyres). Waisted opportunity!

Possibly the tapered pin on the throw out bearing fork is broken or Bent. A TR6 that I recently drove had the same symptoms. The fork was cracked, tapered pin was bent. Graham

Probably the screwdriver!

I agree. I have remote control trucks as a hobby. The big move in recent years is to electric, what with the advances in battery technology. I have no interest in the battery ones, I so much enjoy tinkering with the gas(nitro) powered ICE ones. Love the noise, smell, and smoke! Graham

Mick, It seems recommended that the old water pump be rebuilt as new ones are sub-par. Keep your old one, just in case. No personal experience. Graham

More likely in huff an hour.

If you are paying other businesses to work on your restoration, you are most likely already spending the profit there is to be had. I think TR's restored to driver condition are restored for the pleasure of the activity and the enjoyment of the drive. It is a hobby, not an investment. All the best.

I have heard that the fuel you purchase at marina's (boat) is or may be ethanol free. I do not know if this is the case everywhere.

Purchase my first TR (TR 6), hopefully.
