1972 Triumph TR6 with overdrive -- Description

The TR6 was the last of the line of Triumph's traditional body on frame sports cars. To many, these are the most desirable Triumphs. This is driven by a unique combination of several elements. · They are stylish examples of an open British sports car. · They have excellent parts availability. · Their drive trains are solidly reliable. · They're usable in modern traffic, especially the overdrive equipped cars. · They've seen steady appreciat...ion in value. · They're still one of the most affordable collectible sports cars. The 1972 model here predates the federally mandated impact bumper requirement so its looks aren't spoiled by massive rubber bumper guards. It's also equipped with overdrive so it can cruise at highway speeds while maintaining low engine revolutions. More important, is this car's great overall condition. Due to the TR6's affordable cost, few have been treated to a frame off restoration. This car is one of those exceptions. As the photos show, the frame and underside are all in fine shape. The interior is quite nice and the wood dash is excellent in condition and appearance. It has the correct convertible top with reflective trim stripes. The body is very solid without any rust issues. The paint has a great shine and presents well. However, it is an older restoration and a very close examination will reveal some minor age related paint flaws. That said, these aren't apparent to a casual observation and we feel the paint will be serviceable for years to come. More subjectively, this car has a nice tight feel to it not unlike a very low mileage car. From the time you start the engine, pull away, shift gears, drive, turn, and stop, it just feels right.
