Ha! It's funny to see this thread pop up from 2006 when I was looking for a TR. Because it was local I ended up with a boring red one. Still have it. It is currently in storage. Still debating whether I should put it back on the road or sell it as is. It ran fine when parked but way overdue for engine out service. Image Unavailable, Please Login
That's a fun shot! I remember when the TR looked like a large car. Now it looks downright svelte. Your head is at the roofline while you are kneeling! I always got a kick out of parking my 308 next to a Miata. They were kind of similar in size although you would never have guessed it unless you saw them next to each other. Cars have grown over the years. Here's a pic of a four seat, V12 from an earlier era compared with a modest two seater from a more recent era. Image Unavailable, Please Login
I found when parked next to a bulbous 360 the Testerosa looked about the same size as a 355. Looking at it in my basement it really isn't that large of a car compared to what I'm seeing these days. It's all relative and you know how I feel about relatives.
Likewise, As soon as I got the house paid off it allowed me to get out six years ago. All debt free now. Busier than I have ever been. Numerous construction projects including finishing out the inside of my shop. I am on a trend to eliminate some of the automotive projects that I have around here. Currently a couple of BMW 635s
