brydon Posted January 8, 2009 Report Share Posted January 8, 2009 Hi Whilst browsing e-bay.com I came across this car, http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...T&viewitem= How good does this look! Usual disclaimer about knowing the vendor etc Kind regards Andrew Quote Link to post Share on other sites
YankeeTR5 Posted January 8, 2009 Report Share Posted January 8, 2009 This is a pretty amazing find - especially coming out of the East Coast. That said, occassionally the car does come up that was only used in the summer at the summer house. The seller - in case anyone is interested - seems to be very legitimate and has been dealing in TR stuff on ebay for years. He tends to specialize in TR250 cars (both projects & restored - click on the Me sign on ebay to see his latest restoration of an apparently very rare (color) TR250) and parts. That said, when he ventures out of the 250 realm, he tends to have pretty nice stuff. No interest either financial or otherwise, but this seems like a pretty rare opportunity and thought I'd chime in on the vendor. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jersey Royal Posted January 8, 2009 Report Share Posted January 8, 2009 Thought it looked familiar http://www.tr-register.co.uk/forums/index....&hl=capsule Cheers Guy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Menno van Rij Posted January 8, 2009 Report Share Posted January 8, 2009 Greatm looking car. But what's more interesting: did you see the radio console on one of the pictures! I've never seen one like this before! And the shapes look easy enough to reproduce one if you want one! Menno Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RogerH Posted January 8, 2009 Report Share Posted January 8, 2009 Also you can clearly see the distributor that may satisfy another thread regarding distributors. Roger Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chris59 Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 "NO OIL LEAKS" The engine, gearbox, rear axle, brake and clutch hydraulics systems are empty ?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Alec Pringle Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 No Chris, it's the original fluids - now so viscous with age that they can't leak any more ! Cheers, Alec Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chris59 Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 No oil leaks, even with the drain plugs removed Quote Link to post Share on other sites
