I pried my TR6 away from my sister after it had sat untouched in her garage back in Wisconsin for over 12 years. I found a guy who worked on older Jags there that agreed to take the car and get it running. After a couple of months it was running and I was able to drive it a couple of miles while on vacation back to Wisconsin to see family. I had it shipped to me in AZ. I joined the club in 2004 just before the car got here and the club members got me past my first problem of rust in the gas tank that the shipping process broke lose. They convince me that I could really remove the tank myself and take it to get boiled and sealed. Since then the club as coached me through replacing the rear trailing arm bushings, installing John Horton’s rear tube shock conversion kit, a Monza exhaust kit and other small tasks. The TR6 had 36,600 original miles on it when I got it. My sister bought it when it was 2 years old and did not drive it except the summertime and then only a couple of times a month. I’m up over 43,000 in less than 3 years. Car is pretty original, except carbs (HS-6), rear shocks and exhaust.
