Perhaps we're getting the cart before the horse. Have you and the Missus fully realized what you are getting into? A TR7 is a somewhat mystical vehicular experience. It is important to realize deep in your psyche that ONLY you two will be the Mr & Ms Goodwrench on this car. Even the folks at that British repair garage in Lewisville right on IH35 will be of no real help in sorting out this car. While their mechanics do work on British cars, they are not the specialists that YOU will quickly become. A TR7 relationship is akin to that of the E-type Jaguars and older BMW's. If you are into the car for value or flipping to make a profit, you have chosen poorly. The TR7 will always be a labor of love, it is not a cash cow.
We here in this forum are the single best source on the globe to help our fellow TR7 owners. You good folks like Seth in Montgomery, Texas or you, Chris, in the Dallas area are important to us and we seek to help you thru the tribulations you WILL face. For we have trod in your shoes, to use an expression. Given the distances involved, we will probably never meet except here in these forums. Please post photos whenever possible using the medium size settings so as to avoid overwhelming the site with an oversize photo.
Also, please avail yourselves to read the articles found in the posts from the past. Use the SEARCH function at the top right of your screen. Much wisdom will be found there.
