John Morrison Posted December 19, 2022 Report Share Posted December 19, 2022 Few of us in Cumbria Group have been for the past few months helping fellow CG Member Dave Couling, re-commision or re-build his original TR6, that Dave bought new in 1972. We promised Dave a drive in his car before christmas, and managed to achieve this today, on a bitterly cold Grey day, the car moved under its own power for the first time since 1984! Fair to say Dave was quite chuffed. John. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

John Morrison Posted December 19, 2022 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2022 Hi all, yes it is Saffron, I confess that initially I wasn't too sure about the colour but having been around the car for a while it has very much converted me, I think it suits the 70's car very well indeed. Also need to say, thanks for all the comments, it was very much a team effort, both from our group, and here on our forum, help advice and often the NA parts needed to move the job along, especially here from Conrad and Richard.
