Car came with a roll bar and will go with the car if winner wants it. The car came with the 2" lowered spring set-up. The old springs were weak so I changed them for new ones.Parts car be found easily. In my opinion, 90% of the TR6 parts are available either new or rebuilt. The remaining 10% can be readily found on eBay from people who part these cars out. I also have a meager stock of parts which will be put up for sale soon.I highly suggest that anyone interested in the car come to see it or send someone in their stead before bidding. Car is located in Zip 80016.I will block anyone with less than a 90% feedback rating and those with a less than 5 feedback point score. If you fall into these catagories or are an overseas bidder, ask me about bidding first. If you back out of the deal, expect a negative response.Terms of payment: A $500 deposit within in 48 hours of bid closing paid using PayPal. Remainder paid in the form of cleared bank cashier check within 7 days of bid closing. Collection of the car: I would like it collected 7 days after bid closing. If winner needs a little longer, collection arrangements can be made but car must be paid off within the 7 day limit. Help with collection/transportation: I will not handle any monetary transactions but will help transport company if my time allows it.PLEASE ASK ANY QUESTION PRIOR TO MAKING YOUR BID. I will respond to questions up until the last day of bidding. On Nov-03-10 at 09:03:00 PDT, seller added the following information: Additional Notes: I have been asked by several viewers about the model year of the car. When I purchased the car in 2005 I was handed the title with 1973 written on it. I didn't attempt to have the title corrected as I didn't plan on selling the car so it didn't matter to me. In my opinion the car is a 1975 judging from: Lowered front and rear bumpers with their over-riders, front turn signal lenses, EGR (exhaust gas recirculation valve) dash warning lamp (once connected to the electro-mechanical Service Interval Counter indicating when the EGR valve needed servicing), the air pump bracket mounted on the engine, and interior door panels with the door pull pocket rather than the continuous panel on the 1969-1973 models with the fingergrip door tops. The rear overdrive badge is pre-1975 and was probably added by the person who added the OD unit and electrical system to the car. Since the title that I have for the car shows 1973, I need to advertise the car as such. As far as rust is concerned I will say that I went through the car and all that I found was attended to. I found that the floorboards had small holes in them so had them changed. I can not see any other rust on the car other than the surface rust on the chassis/frame which is normal. I can not guarantee that there might be some of it hidden from the naked eye. The Matador Red interior was installed in TR6's from 1969 to 1971. I liked the Cream & Red combination so decided to install it knowing that it was not the color that the car came with (black only).I have made every attempt to describe that the car is not original and has had some accesories added to it and other changes made. If you are needing a completely original TR6, then please look at the 1974 1/2 car that I also have listed. This is a car begging to be seen & driven and not studied for its historical value. Interested party should come and see the car in person to determine that it meets their satisfaction prior to bidding.
