[TR6 wanted for Classic & Sports Car feature]

Thanks to everyone who has offered their TR6 – I had a superb response by email and pm. We now have a car booked in for Monday, so look out for the March issue of Classic & Sports Car, out in early Feb.

[TR6 wanted for Classic & Sports Car feature]

Hi

 

We're looking for a bright coloured TR6 to take part in a 5-car Seventies Sports Car shoot next Monday or Tuesday (Dec 10/11), somewhere in the Home Counties or thereabouts.

 

The TR6 will also almost certainly be used as the main cover image for Classic & Sports Car's March 2008 issue, which expalins the request for a bright-coloured example like red, yellow or tahiti blue.

 

Who's up for it? You can contact me here or even better by emailing me direct on too_plus_two@yahoo.co.uk for more details

 

Regards

Russ,

 

Try contacting one of the rally boys they are always a good source of Info. What mag is the article for ? Practical classics or Classic cars ?

 

 

It's for Classic Car Weekly. They've been running a 'Tuning & Improving' series since April this year and it's the TR4's turn now.

 

In response to an earlier reply, I'm probably more of a 'tuner and improver' than I am a journalist. So I know all the theories, it's just what applies to and works on TR4s that I'd like to know, and I find it's usually best coming from those peple out there actively doing it, rather than simple listening to someone who's trying to sell something, or just copying it out of a book. Not that that ever happens in classic motoring circles, I'm sure.....

Hi

 

I'm putting together a feature soon for Classic Car Weekly on 'Tuning and Improving the Triumph TR4/4A'.

 

As I'm no particular expert on these cars it would be of great benefit to hear from people who are. There's obviously plenty that can be done to these cars – and has been – over the years, but what works best, and what doesn't?!

 

What are your own experiences, what have you done to your own car that you're pleased with, and who's best to source parts/expertise from?

 

I'm also looking for a car to photograph to illustrate the feature. As I'm based in the Peterborough/South Lincs area, something not too far from there would be preferred.

 

You can contact me here or by e-mail to: too_plus_two@yahoo.co.uk

 

Thanks for looking. I hope to hear from you.
