  • When we were both much younger: 1976

  • Standing next to our TR7 in the paint booth at the restoration shop

  • Suspension and brake work underway

I bought this car new and have had it ever since. It was off the road for over 20 years due to serious rust issues, but a complete professional restoration was finished in 2018. Apart from higher-compression pistons, headers, and deletion of the emission control equipment, it's completely stock with three dealer-installed options: A/C, AM/FM/8-track, and trunk luggage rack. Paint code NAB, trim code CAAA. Most sources say that ACW cars are all 1977 models, but the car was sold to me in 1976 as a 76 model car, and its title and window sticker both say that, as do factory service records to dealers governing the crossover point for certain upgrades.
