This is a 1972 tr6 project that I have worked on over the past year. I will loose my storage and work area this fall so I have decided to put the TR up for auction.  We stripped the TR down to bear metal to see what we had, there was rust in both the outer rocker panels resulting in a couple of patches on the rockers. The rest of the car's body and frame are in good shape and did not require any rust repair. The TR was primed and painted with products from Eastwood, the overall paint job is not bad with the exception of the hood, it should be resprayed. Improvements to the TR would include a screw on oil filter adapter, headlight buckets, tires, and a valve job. My goal was to make it a daily driver not a show car. The car will start and I have only drove it up and down my son's long driveway. The clutch works fine and the trans shifts fine as well, the brakes seem to do there job as well. The Motor runs a bit rough untill it's warmed up. I would guess that the carbs will need to be rebuilt. The interior of the car is in pretty good shape the last owner bought door panels and a carpet set. The seats could use new covers as the drivers seat has some tape on it. There is a canvas top under the boot which could be replaced or not. The instruments seem to work fine the only one that may not be working is the speedometer.

Jaguar F Type V6 S vs Triumph Street Triple R in open-air track attack

Sun, 21 Sep 2014

Typically, these track battle videos pair up car against car or, in more disparate circumstances, car versus crossover, as we saw the other day. While the outcome of that battle was quite predictable, what'll happen when an equally fetching (and fast) four-wheeler is put up against one of the icons of the two-wheeled world? Evo just had to find out.
Matching up a Jaguar F-Type V6 S Convertible against a Triumph Street Triple R is at least more of an even fight than the last battle between the Porsche Cayman GTS and Macan Turbo. The Triumph has a 675-cc engine to work with, and is very light. Meanwhile, the Jag has a thumping 380-horsepower, 3.0-liter, supercharged V6 to haul about it's considerably heftier heft. Who will come out on top?
You'll need to watch the full video to find out.
