1974 Triumph TR-6 Description

The Triumph TR6 is one of the last great British roadsters. It combines the features we enjoy like the powerful and lively six-cylinder motor with the comfort of a full interior. But most of all, it doesn't betray the sprightly nature that makes us fall in love on the backroads. That's why we love to find this turnkey smile machine available at an affordable price.We often see these drop tops in red, green, or white, so it's distinctively nice to see this Triumph in its factory-correct shade of Mimosa Yellow. It's this bright color and solid body that really let you appreciate the details of the roadster. The design was a continued evolution of the TR series, but now it had more muscular fender lines. Even the little details are aggressive such as bright trim ring around the wheels that are reminiscent of Chevy's rally package. But there was also not mistaking its heritage with a flat Kamm-back treatment that was also seen on the larger Triumphs of the day. There's a minimal amount of brightwork to keep these cars uncluttered, but this one has been maintained properly to keep shiny parts looking their best on everything right down to the luggage rack. The result is a car that looks great on the open road, and that's exactly where this droptop belongs.The interior is another hallmark of the great British roadster. With a wood patterned dashboard full of original Smiths gauges, it definitely has a hand-crafted European feel. And this wood also sets the tone for the chestnut vinyl bucket seats, door panels, and boot cover all of which still carry a quality feeling today. And while we know you'll love this for the open-top experience, the black vinyl folding roof fits nice and snug. Plus, it matches the darker exterior elements like the A-pillar and grille, so you look great no matter if the roof is up or down.British roadsters are often known for their fun on the road despite being typically underpowered. That's why the TR6 is so coveted. It has a 2.5-liter inline-six that doesn't suffer from this anemic reputation, and it's one of the larger motors out of the iconic era of sprightly roadsters. This is the original motor to the car, and one look at the engine bay, and you can see it has received a lot of care and attention over its lifetime. In a car that weighs barely 2,500 lbs, it has quick acceleration and the power to keep pulling well into highway speeds. Part of this versatility comes from the control you get with the four-speed manual transmission. Take the long way home, and you'll instantly fall in love with the way the fully independent sport suspension handles in this lightweight roadster. And even when stopping, control is well in hand with front disc brakes and classic redline tires.Complete with owner's manual, owning a British roadster is a sign of distinction, and it only gets better with a ready-to-run Triumph in a distinctive factory correct color. We'll even keep the secret of how little you paid to get all of this. Call today!!!
