Removing the Cat? You must live in a state that does not require a smog test, like us poor devils in California. You may have a mouse or rat living in your air-box. Evict them because they will eat hoses and wiring, I know. Try gauze bag of moth balls near air-box, and remember to remove it before driving.

Dave, I’m currently in the process of painting my TR6 and have removed interior, top , bumpers, etc. the door gaps on my passenger side are great put the drivers side gap is too wide at the top. Based on what you did it sounds like I need to remove some shim from the area by the seat (where the 3 bolts are)? Is there a diagram that shows where all the body mounts are? Great video! Thanks!

@@jacobadcock851 hi Jacob, do you have the Bentley shop manual? The body mounting shim locations are in there if you do. Yes you will have the play with the shims at the bottom of the b post, the rear shelf and at the rear of the car most likely. Lots of trial and error and patience required!

That is great progress. Nothing worse than spending energy trying to find a part. Maybe buying one you already had. My wife helped me- each bin was labeled according to the car the parts went to; parts in each bin were identified and recorded. The written record was then put in a spreadsheet. We had less than ten bins so it wasn’t that major.

Hi Dave, Feelin' your pain with so many parts! I created a massive Excel spreadsheet when I last organized all my TR4A stuff and it lists every part I have from the multiple sources and the tub # it sits in, as well as the rated condition - new, good, fair, poor or scrap. The columns are all color coordinated and it sorts real easy. Makes it super efficient to find anything I need without opening up extra tubs. Took me a long time to develop and populate it but I'd be happy to share the file with you if you want it. I have Elin's email from earlier when I made a solid wood rotisserie stand.
