Nice! I'd like to know and see more of that. Roof and tailgate looks vaguely VW based to me.
I wonder if it is? The original TR6 hard-top was the only part of the TR6 not designed by Karmann (well, apart from the doors and all the other Michelotti hangovers). You can see some Karmann Ghia in the TR6 if you look carefully. Not sure if I like the idea of a TR6 shooting brake though, seems slightly at odds with the character of the TR6. I wonder where he put the fuel tank?
Hi,
Saw this car too, got chatting to the gent, there are two fibre glass hard top cut up with sections added, the tailgate is a TR6 boot lid with a glass installed. The tank has been moved under the boot floor with a custom flap in side pannel. I think it was one of the best cars there. Got a triple Weber conversion fitted so goes as good as looks !
Cheers John

Thanks for mentioning the Dove, here is the famous one that's often seen in the Midlands.
And a lovely Triumph Italia that was not registered until 1981. This green car, built in 1962 now with only 5500 kms and a white Italia having been kept at a dealers in Italy from new. The white car went to Germany.
