It was either 2005 or 2006 in Kansas City for the previous owner. I'd have to check the plaques. Also, there is a sale pending. Thanks for all the inquiries. Jeff

Pics... I will attempt to host some more detailed pictures and post the link. I know the thumbnails don't provide much detail. The youtube link posted above may help answer questions if you have high speed internet. Stay tuned for the link to the pictures. As for offers, send me a pm...

Distance from Huntsville? I'm less than two hours west of Huntsville. As a matter of fact, I bought my first TR in Decatur, Al in 1989 when my wife and I lived in Huntsville. TurboBuRick, replied to your PM and thanks. Thanks for the comment killerb, very much appreciated.

Still For Sale? Yes, the car is still for sale. Thanks mattdg1 for the comments and the bump.

More pics and details... I need to correct myself. In an earlier post I said the car hasn't been wet in years. I remembered that I got rained on at a car show last year. So the car has been wet once in the past several years...but not for long :smile: Here are some additional part specifics...

White T and Interior Pics Shane, Thanks for the comments. On the White T, he's not advertising it but he would sell it. Best I remember, it was bought new locally and is a two-owner car with somewhere in the 35k mi. range. It's a manual window lightweight car and runs strong. New paint is...

Question... JOHNDEEREGN, sent you a PM.

Trades? Thanks for the inquiry, but not interested in trades. I'm working on posting the video, possibly to YouTube, later today. I'll update this afternoon. I think the video is good enough that it will meet the needs of those wanting to see more pictures. Beginning to have second thoughts...

The car has been repainted. I'm very picky about paint. I rate this car a 9.0 out of 10. Gloss and finish are outstanding, but it is not perfect. One pencil eraser size ding on the whole car that does not show at all (didn't know it until I put it on the rack to take pictures). The car has not...

Undercarriage Pics A look at the undercarriage, which is 100% free of undercoating and in excellent condition.

Hardtop Grand National with 49k mi, World of Wheels show winner, stock unopened long block, numerous show and go bolt ons include much stainless and chrome, alcohol injection and TA-49 turbo. Easy high 11’s. Originally a Kansas car free of rust concerns. Documentation includes original window...

85 with 30W oil or moly? 85 with moly would be high IMO. Just some facts to munch on because I'm not the guru on this but I do have some experience. Using stock head gaskets and iron heads, I have verified that re-torquing after 3 heat cycles WILL net more compression of the head gasket and...

Warp, Just out of curiosity, could you post the serial number on the black box? Thanks

What type lifters do you have, 853 comp cams or 885 comp cams? If you aren't sure, ask your engine builder. They are different. I'm not sure I've solved a similar problem yet because I haven't started the engine, but I've gone from 853's to 885's to try and eliminate valvetrain noise that seemed...
