SUMMARY
A wonderful example of the ever popular Triumph TR6 with one former keeper and just over 2,000 miles since an impressive restoration.
DESCRIPTION
- The TR6 was quite refined, for a sports car, and featured pile carpets on the floors and boot, plush-looking bucket seats, a lovely wooden dashboard, and a full complement of instruments
- It was powered by a naturally-aspirated, 2.5-litre straight-six with fuel-injection, producing around 150bhp (CP), driving the rear wheels via a 4-speed manual transmission with overdrive
- Other features include semi-trailing arm independent rear suspension, rack and pinion steering, 15-inch wheels and tyres, and disc brakes at the front with drums at the rear
- This lovely TR6 was originally supplied in Northern Ireland on 04/06/1971 and remained with its first and only keeper until the change of ownership in 2023 as borne out by its original green log book that remains with the car
- A new fuel tank, fuel pump and hoses etc. were fitted by our vendor in 2023
- Fully restored, prior to our vendor's purchase, to a remarkably high standard. We were unable to find any history relating to this restoration and consequently encourage your close inspection to appreciate the quality on offer
