1973 Triumph TR-6

Triumph TR-6 (1973)
for sale

Price: US $107.50

Description:

1973 Triumph TR6 Convertible with 4 speed manual transmission. The odometer reads 4, 750 miles but I'm sure that the mileage exceeds the mechanical limits of the odometer. This car is a solid driver that starts, stops, runs fine, and shifts smoothly. The clutch is tight and does not slip and the brakes strong. Tires are in good shape. Car starts and idles beautifully. Ignition and starter system components in good shape. All lights and gauges in operating order with the exception of night running/tail lights in the rear (tail light wire insulation between light switch and fuse exposed), blinkers (needs switch), and fuel gauge. The car will need interior work (currently no carpet or interior door skins) and a new top. The convertible top frame is in good shape. Comes with snap on vinyl top boot/cover and snap on vinyl tonneau cover in great shape. Interior seems to be in decent shape. The wood dash is in need of refurbish due to cracking clear coat, but the wood itself is fine. Car comes with 2 sets of 3 keys.
This TR6 is a good candidate for a driving restoration. The benefit of buying this over a similar TR6 is that you can see the condition of the floorboards. Although there is some surface rust, I have found minimal pin holes which can be left alone or patched at your discretion. The chrome bumpers are in decent shape. Both windows are in good shape and crank up and down with no issues. The body is in amazing shape. The panels are solid and I haven't found any signs of body rust. The paint is in overall good condition with some cracks (left side behind door and left rocker panel). The frame appears to be in decent shape, but have noticed two holes on right side near back bumper that will need repair. The other frame rail looks fine. (See photos)
This TR6 comes with new seat belts (in packaging and original jack and tire iron.
