    Well, maybe because so many times, so many people went in the TR to sit in it but never drove that car .... but funny: YES ...

    I agree.. owner probably sat in the driver seat so many times pretending he was driving the car.. The car looks clean.. The seat leather replacement is an easy fix.. Then it just needs to be sorted..

    Fuse Box (Dave Helms - Scuderia Rampante)
    gold connector kit (Dave Helms - Scuderia Rampante)
    Taylor 7mm ignition wires (Dave Helms - Scuderia Rampante)

    Once these things are done plus engine out and some hoses replaced it would be time to rack up the miles.. Oh.. I think it needs tires as well.. I like the color... I like the car..

    Or the mileage is incorrect. you have to admit to the possibility of this.

    unlike a 512TR, in that if you disconnect the speedo, a CEL is activated, in a TR, no such thing (I think).

    Anyway, this is just idle banter from me :)

    Too bad that they didn't go with an all black interior to complement the oro -- JMO.

    Being partial to anything non red, I've seen an Oro TR in person with (requisite) BROWN interior. It was very stunning and very tasteful.

    ...I wonder what became of that car...
