Thanks for your interest + reply; my P6B is a 1972, NZ assembled ( Nelson factory ) Being restored, but no progress 'til I get back to NZ later in the year
I'll post pictures then; car was purchased on TradeMe in 2008 from Rotorua +is a low mileage original ( less than 50,000 miles ) that is getting a W58 Toyota 5-speed + a 3.9 LandRover Discovery motor that has been converted to carbs + bored + stroked to 5 litres; using a Leyland P76 crank + flywheel, smallblock Chev. conrods + forged pistons. All parts have been sourced, just not, err, currently in the car... :roll:
Will look fairly "stock" if you don't look too close ( ! ) Unfortunately an overseas posting has slowed this project down somewhat, but not damped my enthusiasm
I previously owned a 2000TC in dark Green with a tan leather interior and chrome wire wheels that unfortunately ended up in my Hillsborough workshop being parted out ( mid 1980's) as a mate hopped it over a traffic island at speed and that tucked the front crossmember back about a foot....
Always wanted another one and not hard to find in NZ, tho' not as many around in top condition as there once were; I looked at quite a few before I bought this latest one
Very poor interiors letting down most, followed by varying amounts of rust
best
