bad timing. sounds like a good price for a driver. The faults you mentioned are fairly easy and less than $500 to take care of except the main seal - they pretty much all leak unless you go to some big measures to take care of - either modify crank to take a viton seal or modify the surround to take a modern crank seal. May be moving soon (either semi local or potential for cross-country) and already have 4 cars to deal with.

4 cars? Meh, I may be moving and am trying to get down to 1 race car and 6 street cars, which means having to sell 1 race car and 4 street cars. God, it hurts my head (and I'm not even counting the motorcycles and car parts. (where in the hell is my aspirin)

Oh and best of luck. The TR3 is near the very top of british cars I love and want to own.

All I have to do is show interset in something and it sells. I need to start charging a commission.
