Just bought her about a month ago and have been doing small things here and there. Just got her polished up so I took a couple of pics.
Used this to verify I was buying a GN and not a clone WE2 with G80, yeah
Finding one stock or close to stock was a requirement for me. For my GN it is a classic car and will remain stock. I'm not going for show car original NOS parts, aftermarket replacements are fine. Just want to drive the car and maybe hit some cruise ins, mainly enjoy it.
Not a factory radio, out of a Cadi but as close as I could find at the local P&P. The previous owner hacked all the wiring so I got factory plugs and soldered them back in with heatshrink. I really don't listen to radios when cruising in cars like this, the sound of the engine is the sweetest music.
This seat is worn and has a hole, as does the carpet and the upper door panels. Needs some interior work that will start once I have everything mechanical taken care of.
Rear filler missing, body work is last.
Well that is my new toy. Bought it with 127K (27K) on the odometer for $8500. It has issues like original vacumm lines I started replacing. Screws and bolts missing here and there. Just wasn't taken car of like I would have but now it is in good hands. Oh yeah, this is a T-Top car with no power seats, locks, windows, antenaa or trunk. Which I think is neat because that makes it a little bit lighter. BTW I encourage anyone to point out things you see in the pics I did not bring up. This is my first TR and I might not even now if I am missing something or it is out of place. Thanks for looking.
