That would be tempting if it were a mk1....fortunately (or is that unfortunately) Michigan is too far away right now for the budget.

My 71 TR6 was Laurel Green and it seemed darker than this, but it's difficult to get a true idea of color, on-line.
This car looks like it has some red in the rear wheel cavity, so it might have been repainted and the owner lost interest in finishing it, or they were starting to prep for a paint job, and lost interest.
Either way, a loss of interest usually means the owner just wants out, so you can get the best prices.
