[Back on the road!]

Smart car Dan, thanks for sharing photos on here, makes me wonder how many TRs are currently registered in Hawaii?, cant imagine many were exported originally to

the island,

cheers,

Laurence

[Emma's 6]

better without the bumpers Neil, looks great, and the webers look pretty good too ,

cheers,

Laurence

[Should I invest inEFI?]

Steve,

I have run my 5 on webers for the past 5 years and 30k miles without issue, i would confirm that once they are set up by a professional who understands webers and there application with our engines there should not be any problems. As Stuart says it does require all other aspects of the fuel and ignition system to be good.EFI is a step too far(Neils point) in my book, we are dealing with an old sports car at the end of the day and own them because of the character and style that mod boxes just do not have,

cheers,

Laurence

[Practical Classics track day at Blyton: 19/4/2012]

Hi Tom,

Any photos?,

cheers,

Laurence

[What tyres on 5.5 minilites?]

195s are about as wide as you really want to go on a TR, imo, and then on a 6inch rim

With a 5.5 minilite i would have thought 185s would be max width, and no doubt the narrower tyre the easier the steering,at low speeds, will be,

cheers,

Laurence.

ps i seem to recall , on a 6 i owned in the 80s ,had 205s on standard 6 steel rims , tramlined like a dog

[Looking for larger alloys]

Simon,

The wheels and nuts came direct from Revolution, from memory the nuts were the same length as originals. Tyres are 195/65/15 Pirelli P6 cinturatos and have worked well with the wheels thus far(5k+miles),-the Revs are 6'' wide.

I believe other colours for the spokes,apart from gloss black, are available,

cheers,

Laurence

[Looking for larger alloys]

Murray,

A set of Revolutions look pretty good on a 6 imo, think the pic of my 6 will give you an idea,

cheers,

Laurence

[Front Wheels touching]

Greg,

From what i recall, when the car was for sale,it did sit lower than what would be considered standard, suggesting shorter springs and possibly

why you now have a problem with your new wheels,

cheers,

Laurence

[1969 TR6]

From the photos Booga you have a good car, and i for 1 like the mods, good luck with your

sale,

cheers,

Laurence

[Stainless Steel Bumpers]

how about the bumperless look?,looks good,(imho) and saves weight,

cheers,

Laurence

[Strange malfunction]

time for those webers David ,

cheers,

Laurence

[revington rolling road]

From what i learnt on saturday its £75 per hour , not sure how many runs that would give you, it all looked ok on the demo,

but i didnt use it myself,

cheers,

Laurence,

ps i think you would also have to add the dreaded VAT to the above

[Interesting '6 on Fleabay]

Interesting car Simon,well spotted,

cheers,

Laurence

ps love the mallard blue paintwork on yr 6

[Another TR back on the road]

Top job, thanks for sharing,

cheers,

Laurence

[water pump]

My 5 has the Racetorations water pump, no problems after 5 years and 30k+ miles, you pays your money and takes your choice,

cheers,

Laurence

[TR6 on Ebay]

Front indicators and carrbs suggest an exUS car. The reg plate indicates a CP series car but the plastic scuttle vent and lack

of rear number plate light plinth point in a CR series direction..,

cheers,

Laurence

[sun visors and fuel tank boot trim]

Over time the visors have an unfortunate habit of the foam body disintigrating , the current crop of replicas

are not up to much either,good luck finding a solid original,

cheers,

Laurence

[Most expensive '6?]

think it was bought for his girlfiend at the time,

cheers,

Laurence

[Cam Followers]

[Prescott Hill Climb. - May 20th]

Will be there, hopefully the camping facilities will be ok and the weather kind,

cheers,

Laurence

[Fitting bumpers]

how about bumperless look ,save the worry and the weight ,

cheers,

Laurence

[Car Fire Extinguishers!]

Good point Roger, not sure most folk would be that keen to tackle a car fire of any description,-the fire extinguishers

i havelooked at seem to be on the small size and would not really be that much use on anything but the smallest of fires,

cheers,

Laurence

[Car Fire Extinguishers!]

Christine,

Sorry , i am not in the market for classic fire extinguishers but i would be interested where you,and others, locate

the fire extinguisher. In my case i dont have a roll cage,which would seem the obvious place, and understand carrying

in the boot isnt advisable, so where? , pics would be welcome,

cheers,

Laurence

[FUL 1C]

Your car looks very smart, glad you could share ,

to be fair it was the good lady who sorted my own pic, my abilities,on that front, are

pretty poor ,

cheers,

Laurence
