Whoaaaa!!!! I only just came across this thread!!!

 

Kel i'm stunned by your car, its awesome ... a TR6 with TR7 rear lights hahahaha I LOVE IT :lol: plus the interior, modern switches all that stuff fantastic!

 

Don't listen to the haters or the critics and be proud of that beast. That has to be one the most "pimped" TRs ever and its right up my street. Really individual, customised and coool and even better it upsets the purists just like the big bum on my Grinnall :P

 

If this really is the way the register is going or whatever the waffle was about?!?! :( then bring it on!!!! "i'm in" as they say on dragons den!! ;)

 

More than enough original 6's left around for people to waffle on about CP numbers and chrome wires. If there were more TRs like this car - shows in fields would be sooo much more interesting :lol:

 

Keep us posted, i'm sure you will!

Hi wayne thanks 4 the the good comments there does not seem to be as much opposition to my car as i thought it would, so it seems that i have pimped my ride as the 6th generation TR, now thats made it harder to choose wheels in case i get it wrong!!!!

I suspect the reason there aren't many sqeals of protest or howls of derision is that the TR6 is far more readily available and generally at quite reasonable prices compared with the earlier cars. Try doing what you have done to an earlier car and you'd probably need a bunker. :lol:

Hi Kelvin,

 

Like Wayne, I've only just picked up this thread although you have previously updated me. As it will obviously be pretty quick, looks so white and so smart, it occurred to me that if by any chance there are weekends when you're not taking it to Shows, (not much chance if you and Bill get together!), you could hire it out (with you driving of course) to either Brides or Bridegrooms who have a'get me to the church on time' problem - what a way to arrive at the church!

 

I'll have to carry out my long standing threat and come over to see Bill, yourself and the car!

 

Cheers

 

Geoff

That looks amazing. Getting to be too good to drive...

 

I'd never dare run a bumperless car or one with the bumperettes sitting agin the body, be constantly nervous of parking zonks.

I prefer to be the one dishing it out, with the galvanised bumpers on my Landy. tongue.gif
