    Hello Everyone,

    I spent today with a friend driving around for business and pleasure. The odometer rolled past 50k miles before I put her away with a good wipe down and dusting. With the cold but clear weather we have had, I still get the 512TR out weekly for a few hundred miles. We cruised around Columbus and Delaware and had a great lunch in downtown Delaware at a place called 12 West. I hope you enjoy the pics!

    I'm sure the fact that your not worried about putting mileage on the odometer makes you enjoy every drive that much more! Thanks for sharing! I can't think of a better machine to drive on a regular basis! I think I need a second TR! 😉

    Awesome, just think your the only person in your car`s entire ownership to see that!

    I missed my car`s 50th as it had already done 59K when I bought it but I hope I see it`s 100th (and I hope the car see`s mine lol).

    Love the pics, car looks awesome sat there.

    They`re the just the best looking dash ever on a night!

    Hello Everyone! Yes it has the original diff still. I bought a quill shaft, waiting to get the new diff unit soon. My major is due next year. Of course it needs paint work also. It is in better shape than when I bought it. I have corrected mechanical and cosmetic issues, not much though. This car runs great and I love owning such a special car.

    Original diff!!! yeah. Everyone has me scared that every time I get in mine it is going to blow up and kill me. Glad yours is still original. Think I'll take mine for a spin now.
