I recently purchased TC 6172 from Victoria Australia. It was being sold on behalf of a collector in Queensland due to ill health. Gavin was tracked down as being a previous owner and has provided me on some of its history as known by him. I believe he documented that part in his brief Bio i.e.. restored by Robert Gibson of Newcastle New south Wales over a 12 month period prior to having been in storage for 40 years. It is a matching number car with correct period fittings apart from the car receiving a Datsun steering box since restoration. this has made a positive impact on its drivability, and I have made improvements to the carburetors and general maintenance since owning. I intend to try and gather some information as to its early history and importation to Australia. I have always loved TC's and many opportunities have passed owning one. it has taken 38 years to finally have this particular car in my collection. Thane Martin
