71 Triumph TR6 Restoration Project
Smell the Roses
With all the hustle and bustle, sometimes it’s nice to look at accomplishments, whether large or small we humans need something to give us meaning in life! Being idle is not healthy and I can’t imagine what I’d be doing if it weren’t for my little Texaco Station and things that go on;) Pics can […]

TR6 AC
Hi, it’s me again, so soon you ask! ha ha ha! I must apologize to TR6 owners which may have come across this blog hopeful for an AC in their TR6. My TR6 has a Miata engine with an aftermarket evaporator under the dash which really wouldn’t work with a ‘normal’ TR. They are available […]
