Whoa! Runs like a champ! Fantastic. What could be better than a test drive while I'm enjoying my breakfast? Perfect. Thanks, Elin. Love every video you make.
Oh, yeah, that was some really fast reaction on your side. Thank you so much, John! It is almost done now. It will be on British Car Day show this weekend!
I would say the consensus of your fans is that we could watch you everyday and wait for your videos like I said to Tush you guys should do a reality show together great stuff .
Terrific to see another TR6 back on the road, problem is you're going to have a lot of trouble going back to the Spitty after driving the TR regularly. I can see a TR in your not to distant future. Now you're a proper sports car driver Elin it's two hands on the wheel at a "quarter to three". Best regards, Geoff from Merimbula Australia
LOL. I still enjoy my Spitfire. It is not the speed and HP I enjoy in these cars. I really like cruising and enjoying the wind on my face. I might own a TR6 soon yes, but my Spitfire still has a special place in my heart!
Elin - @ 17:30 that looks like a Brit workshop - Discovery, TR6 and a GT6. All from the same BL lineage ... great progress on the TR of course. Not far to go now my friend ...
Amazing how many classics you see at shows, perfect paintwork etc then a pile of technicolor spaghetti all over the engine bay. I cheated and shoved wires through heatshrink tubing as I couldnt face taping them.
I always loved nice and tidy wiring. When I wire newly built limousines I try to keep them nice and clean, but I've seen such messes that it takes me hours to figure out what does what before I realize there is a blown fuse
Elin, oh Elin, you broke your principle of always driving a little bit forward on 18:04, you started the car and engaged the reverse gear right away :P
Elin, was that just "ballpark" timing you went with when switching out the distributor? Glad you're installing transmission cover soon, your right elbow/forearm got within two inches of the fast spinning trans yoke.
Your test drive frightened the hell out of me, and im lying in bed watching this
NOW THATS WHAT YOU CALL A TEST DRIVE!!! LOVE IT, THANKS ELIN
The engine sounded great & powerful......well done Elin.....!
That U joint by your leg scares the hell out of me!

LOL. Thanks Bruce!
is bored of you? MATE! you dont know how much i welcome watching you restore these old beauties, it really takes the drag out of my day!
Thanks! I appreciate that.
Looks like it’s got some giddy up. Nice video.
Gave jake a switch plinth today for your 73. Looking forward to seeing it all done and finished. Your vids will help me build my 70.

I know, right? Tell him. He doesn't take the idea seriously :)

Great channel and great work Elin, I'm envious. Be careful when using the top of your battery as a tool tray...

Nice slow and easy test drive lol
I know right.. I am glad I am not the only one seeing it that way
Be sure to grease that prop shaft u joint while it's so accessible..ha ha
Elin, oh Elin, you broke your principle of always driving a little bit forward on 18:04, you started the car and engaged the reverse gear right away :P
I know right... I really don't know what was I thinking. LOL
Elin, was that just "ballpark" timing you went with when switching out the distributor? Glad you're installing transmission cover soon, your right elbow/forearm got within two inches of the fast spinning trans yoke.
Yeah, I did proper timing at a later stage. My elbow was never closer than a foot from the shaft. It is just the camera angle.
Engine sounds strong- I vote daily videos..
LOL, I wish I could do that.
Definitely not obeying the speed limits!!!😱. But sounds good!!
Cmon, it wasn't that fast. Watch it with muted sound :) it is more noise than speed
awesome!
Thanks
Just like Steve Mc Queen!
Drive it like you fixed it. Then fix it again ;-)
LOL
Time to do some serious shake down testing and get to the detailing stage
Yep, That is right! LOL
Looks like a fun car to drive. Same engine as your GT6?
It is almost the same. the GT6 has lower stroke on the crank hence only 2.0L vs. 2.5L on the TR6 But it is virtually the same engine
what kind of exhaust / mufflers do you have on that engine?
Just stock exhaust from Moss Motors
And remember, you don't like TR6's....😎
Depends on the point of view :)
wot was yr last job ? formula 1 car tester lol
LOL, It is not that fats. The engine sound made it look faster than what it is
He"s driving like a maniac.😑
