Description

1961 TR3a project or parts car. I bought this car about 3 years ago, thinking that I would need parts for another project. I ended up buying a restored car so I no longer have a need for this car.
It had been parked in a garage down the street since 1994. I brought it home and within about half hour, had the motor running. I used a gas can as a fuel tank and I had to hot-wire it since the key doesn’t seem to work in the ignition switch.
THE GOOD:
The car is mostly complete.The engine starts and runs.Transmission (shifter) feels nice and goes into and off of the gears smoothly.The gauges seem to all work.The brakes feel solid, surprisingly.The tires were bought brand new back in 1995. (They have 12 miles on them.)
THE BAD:
Lots of rust. Some surface, some all the way through. (Like the trunk)Lots of dents.Obviously needs complete interior.No title.
This is a California black plate car. Just goes to show that not all California cars are rust free.
The title on this car is missing. eBay didn't have an option to list it as missing, that's why it says clear.
