Came across this while looking for local auctions. 

Looks like a lot of cool stuff that I'll have to resist bidding on.

the TR6 grabbed my attention.  i'm gonna try to resist and hope it goes outside my "i could probably be forgiven" range before i succumb to my weakness.

I live in armada, can (and probably will) check these out if needed.

Just  long overdue follow up.  I did wind up bidding and winning this tr6.  Dummy me did not take 5 minutes to look at it in person, whoops.  It looks like a long stored older restoration (mud daubers in the carbs)- I have not done anything but park it in the garage.  Closer look now I see rockers & drivers pan shot (and some other pinholes) but I guess overall its solid & complete.

Not super excited about it but I guess to do have the tools fix it (I can see a ton of scope creep)

And yep, spent 10 years in Seattle and now back in the thumb area of michigan.

Looks like that would be a ton of fun to bomb around in, once it's running :) If it ever goes away, post it here first!

Get it running, drive it a bit, then sell it to someone who has always wanted a TR6 and thinks that rust will just cost a few hundred to fix at the body shop.
