1974 Triumph TR6 - All Original!

Description for Triumph TR-6 1974

I am listing this car for a friend as he doesn't use Ebay. I have seen this car and drove it this weekend, hese pictures are from this weekend and I can put you in touch directly with the owner if you want to speak to him directly.

1974 triumph TR6 — 52k original miles. This car was purchased in 2009 as a retirement gift, he owner's plan was to go through the car mechanically first and then tackle any needed body work. However within a year of purchasing it and after completing most of the mechanical work, here was a sickness in the family and the car has been in storage for the last five years. The car runs and drives, owever would recommend trailering it home for a thorough tune-up in lieu of driving it further than 50-100 miles.

The Good:

Below is all of the mechanical work that was completed within the first year of ownership. To be clear this car runs and drives (brakes squeak but that is probably due to sitting), n 90 degree weather it did not run hot, nd it starts right up. Work done:

· Head removed with new gaskets

· New valve springs & seals

· New thermostat

· New distributor

· New clutch

· New Red Line tires (balanced and alignment)

· New choke and throttle cables

· New brakes

· Tops in good shape and has the tonneau cover for top down cruising

· Carpets in good shape

The OK:

· Original paint — looks great from 20 feet away, owever there are a few places where the paint is flaking off

· There paint is cracking on some of the body seams (typical for a car of this age with original paint)

· Under the door sills there is some cracking as well, ee photo

· The interior is in good shape with the exception of the drivers seat, he cover should be re-stitched but again looks good from 10 feet and feel comfortable sitting in

· Tops in good shape and has the tonneau cover for top down cruising

· Dash is in good shape with no cracks but should be re-stained

· Suspension felt ok but would assume its original

Needed Work:

· Rear turn signals come on, on't flash and the fronts don't do anything(my guess would be a relay)

· Left rear taillight is cracked

· Brakes squeal

· 1 of the backup lights is out

This is an original car and I would say is a drivers car. Good for someone either looking for a nice driver that's mechanically sound and not too concerned with a pristine body appearance, r for someone looking for a good base to start with and complete the rest of the restoration with the body. It has been sitting in storage for 5 years and the owner has put only a few miles on it since it was purchased and the above work completed. Reason for the sale is due to the progressed illness in the family, he owner will not be able to complete what he started and wants it to go to someone who can either enjoy it as is or finish it.

This car is being sold as is, ith no warranty expressed or implied.

Any questions please reach out to me directly.
