For sale is my 1975 Supercharged TR6. This is an unbelievable car! It runs fantastic and the supercharger yields
a 30% power and torque increase! The work that has been done to this car is partially
listed below. I bought this car from a
Six Pack member and I am regrettably selling it owing to financial reasons. This
person did all the work in the last 12 years. He is very meticulous! This was
made obvious to me during extensive conversations that I had with him before I
purchased this car. Also, I have a complete service records with all the
receipts he acquired as he was redoing the car (A full file box full of them!). The car is an original overdrive car
that works perfect. The car is fitted
with center lock spline-drive Dayton Wire Wheels that use tubeless tires. As
can be seen from the ID tag, the original color of the car was Maple Brown with
Beige interior. The car is presently
Jaguar Racing Green with Beige interior. There are no rust issues on this car. The paint, however, does have some blemishes and imperfections. The color change is very good and was done
some time ago. I have listed some of the
individual upgrades and work that has been done to this amazing car:
Engine:
The engine was completely rebuilt around 10k miles ago. This rebuild included new crankshaft
(polished), camshaft, ceramic coated pistons, block cold tanked, rings, bush
standard ration rocker arms, high performance lifters, chrome moly pushrods, adjustable
cam sprockets, oil pump, water pump, distributer (solid state), MSD ignition, tri-metal
main and rod bearings and GM alternator conversion. The flywheel has been
lightened and the entire engine was dynamically balanced such that every piston
and rod was balanced within .5 grams of each other.
Of course, there was the fitment of the Rootes type Supercharger. This also included the fitment of a single SU
carb and a different fuel pump. There is
a pressure gauge under the hood to monitor the fuel pressure. Every detail has been attended to in fitting
and setting up this supercharger. I have
dyno readouts that were done for this car: 128.4 Hp and 175 lb-ft torque (stock
is 91 Hp and 123 lb-ft torque). Remember, these are rear wheel figures, not at the crankshaft.
Transmission/Overdrive:
The clutch has
been altered from stock. It utilizes a
Gunst throw-out bearing which is a significant from stock. A new clutch master
cylinder was also fitted. The transmission and J type overdrive have been
completely gone through with new seals. The car shifts perfectly and the overdrive works effortlessly. The car was also fitted with a high-torque
starter motor.
Suspension/Brakes:
The car has been
fitted with KYB Gas tube shocks, sway bars front and rear, Front spindle
reinforcing kit, slotted rotors, Toyota 4-piston calipers in front, finned rear
brake drums, master cylinder and residual pressure valve. As mentioned above, the car is equipped with
Dayton tubeless center lock wire wheels (to the tune of $1200). These wheels are all chrome and require no
maintenance.
Interior:
The interior has been completely redone using ’69 seats and fully
rebuilt pre-72 gauges. The speedometer, after it was rebuilt was set to the mileage on the car. So, the mileage listed
is close to original. The window mechanisms
have been replaced and the dashboard is a beautiful birdseye maple. The top is
in beautiful shape and I have the boot and the tonneau cover. I also have a
complete car cover. There is a neat electronic gauge under the dash that
monitors boost, engine fuel/air mixture and fuel pressure. The wiring to the
headlights has been relayed for long life. The key has been moved to the center
of the dash like the ‘69’s. Everything
works on this car!
There is
much more to this car than I can even explain here. I have many more photos if wanted. If you have any questions, please call me at
(315) 247-9168.
I forgot to mention that I have a number of extra parts that go with the car including a new window/top rubber seal kit (not that it really needs it), the original gauges, valve cover and dash pad (the portion where the key was moved to), a Goode bushing kit and a bunch of other parts. thank you!
Thank you! Eugene
