Restoration completed in 2001

  • 2nd owner since new.  Purchased from original Colorado owner family
  • Car has been a Colorado-car since new (Arid / Low-humidity Climate)
  • Rust-free Colorado car
  • 85,058 original miles
  • Car has never seen winter by current owner 
  • Always Garage-kept by current owner
  • Numbers matching car (Vin Number, Engine and Body numbers all match)
  • Colors match original build:  Paint is original Pimento Red and the Interior is Chestnut-colored
  • All parts removed, and most mechanical parts refurbished during restoration, some replaced
  • Non-wearable parts replaced include Brake master cylinder, brake lines, coolant hoses, full wire harness replacement, and exhaust replaced with Falcon Stainless system.
  • Correct style convertible top with reflective piping (as original for 1976 model year)
  • Period-correct Roll-bar was installed behind front seats.
  • Car originally was a non-overdrive car.  Replaced with a J-type overdrive tranny from another TR6
  • Original Pimento Red color resprayed to show quality, on top of several layers of top quality primer and epoxy primer.  This is not a base coat / clear coat paint job.  It is as original, with a single stage paint.  Hours of painstaking finish sanding and polishing paid off for the final product.
  • Upholstery is the original Chestnut color, and in excellent condition
  • Engine fully rebuilt and a strong running example.  Cylinders were bored to .040 over.
  • Frame was stripped, and strengthened with gussets for all "common problem areas", welds were relaid where necessary, and frame was coated in rust-resistant paint.
  • Upgraded sport springs installed
  • Body was completely bead blasted after full-disassembly.  Any of the minor imperfections (minor door-dings and the like) were hand-hammered, skim-coated, then shot with Etching primer, High build primer, and capped with Epoxy primer prior to having color applied.
  • Color spray covers the entire body, inside all panels, and underneath.
  • All suspension parts were powder coated black for the durability of the finish
  • Original Tonneau Cover and original Chestnut Boot cover (cover for convertible top when stowed) are included.
  • Convertible Top is like the original, with the reflective piping.
  • Pirelli tires on replica Minilite wheels
