I don't have the engine number as the tool box on the left side where the

engine.
I have owned this car since 1974. I bought it in Portsmouth, Ohio and drove
it home to Idaho. I drove it on several events but stopped driving it
several years ago as the wood in the body needs attention. Mechanically it
is very sound. I am really writing this looking for help to sell the car. I
just recently was released from the hospital after spending one month there
and realize I will never be able to restore this car and hope to find it a
good home.

I don't have the engine number as the tool box on the left side where the
number plate is was removed and the battery located there. It is a 1292
engine.
I have owned this car since 1974. I bought it in Portsmouth, Ohio and drove
it home to Idaho. I drove it on several events but stopped driving it
several years ago as the wood in the body needs attention. Mechanically it
is very sound. I am really writing this looking for help to sell the car. I
just recently was released from the hospital after spending one month there
and realize I will never be able to restore this car and hope to find it a
good home.

The TC arrived today! It has a Made in England plate, but it's too early to
