With the TR6 now moth balled for the winter and diff repair on hold. I need to move on. I'm back on the long awaited Stag but in-between doing that I need to get this TR6 chassis ready to sell it, so it will be on Ebay soon. It's a straight Galvanised chassis but before I advertise it I do need to do the diff mounts mod, clean and respray. I had used it as a jig when I had the business, for TR6 rebuilds

As part of winding down things to full retirement, (and due to health reasons) I now have taken down my business web page, I am still carrying on with work though it is at a much smaller scale and other than a small circle of long-time loyal customers., any new contact is from word of mouth and will be assessed on ''what is needed'' still happy to advise as always. Eventually I will close my FB (Classic Cars Cardiff) page but for those that still want to follow me and any projects that will be my own cars you can follow my personal page (Spiro Tant).
Future projects will be my own nut and bolt Stag followed by my other long-awaited return of my Dolomite Sprint.

Well the diff is down and rear cover removed. As you can see it wasn't the lack of oil. You can see the oil pouring out from where the pinion should have been, as I jacked up the rear of the car. The pinion dug into the planet cage and a couple of teeth chipped on the planet gears. I think I'll be going with a Black Line diff unit and obviously a new crown wheel pinion.

Well, I can safely say it’s the end of this season for the TR6. It’s been yet another eventful year with it. Having covered many reliable miles over the years, the last 12 mths it’s been nothing but reliable. It all began this time last year, a trip to Spain where it snapped a driveshaft (featured further back on my FB ) A long saga with a five week wait for the TR being returned home. This year its annual European trip was Jersey Motor Festival and then a trip through France onto Lake Annecy. A memorable trip for being breath taking and ‘’what now’’ with the TR. On the trip at midpoint, I had to nurse a prop UJ failure. With the problem sorted upon our return home among a few other niggles (inlet/exhaust manifold gasket). TR was back up and running again but that was not to last for long. With the TR back on the rd the joy was short lived, Diff failure was the last straw. So it will now stay in the workshop until I decide which avenue to take, repair, replace, or fit an alternative Nissan upgrade. For now it can sit there till next year. I think its had a enough of my spare time spent on it. I think I need to return back to the very long awaited project, the Stag, which has sat for the past four years.

There is no such thing as a five min job, I can safely say we've all said it and started them, and the then the can of worms open up. After 26 years since the TR was painted the paint started to lifting away from the front panel below the screen. the metal below was and is very good the mistake was I had used galvanized base prime which stopped the paint from holding onto it. This was not so much the issue but cracking the screen has turn into a nightmare. trying to source a like for like replacement, green tint with dark blue top strip not easy. Plenty of green tinted top though.
