Now you just need to source some chrome-edged repeater lenses. Not easy to find, but not impossible...
True, I'm waiting for one side from Rimmer Bros ... can't remember which side I need but it's not in stock Thanks for trying Ernie at Invicta Spray Chrome
Just hiding this in here so it doesn't get moved to the video section.

Hi there, I’m new to the forum.
I have very fortunately become the owner of a 1971 TR6 LHD 2 carb, without overdrive. The engine, bodywork and interior are all in truly mint condition and I wondered what options you might recommend I consider for an affordable engine and performance upgrade? cheers

This is mine. Had it nearly 20 years. Was a Californian car that has been returned to R/ H drive
Bosch injection with stage 2 head, .60 oversize pistons and liners, lightened and balanced crank and flywheel, 6 into 1 extractor manifold with straight through exhaust. Electronic ignition; alloy tank and uprated radiator with electric fan.
Spax adjustable all round, fully poly bushed, hard mount steering rack, vented front disc with twin pot calliper conversion an Alifin rear discs. Other than that it’s bog standard.
Bit of a Wolf in Sheep’s clothing.
Go to Le Mans in it most years and try and do a project / upgrade each year.
I often toy with the idea of doing a few upgrades to mine performance wise, the US model on Stromberg carbs really is a bit of a slug and doesn't really rev above 4,000, which is a shame. But then I always stop myself because somewhere in the back of my brain I think it's best to keep it 100% original.
Two more weeks to go until I can wake mine up from the winter sleep and it's registered to drive again (seasonal plates from March to November), and I can't wait.

If anyone wants to buy a very tidy left hooker, I've decided to sell mine.
After about a year and a half of ownership I've come to realise that I just don't use it often enough (maybe 3 times this entire year). It's too old / uncomfortable for any real longer distances, especially with Mrs Adenauer, and we're not old enough to just use it to go and get an ice cream in Cochem.
I'm going to get myself something much newer that we can actually use for the occasional long weekend in the Alps, etc. Something like a 2017 Mustang.
