This 1974 Triumph TR6 is a true survivor; with original paint and equipment right down to the Michelin red-line tires. The working odometer reads just under 58,500 miles which I believe to be original. The previous owner purchased the car in the late 70's with 30,000 miles and rarely drove it during his ownership. The Maple brown lacquer paint is in great shape for its age, showing minor chips & scratches. It shines beautifully in person and in the pictures. I've found no evidence of any paint work done other than some brush-on touch up to some stone chips, and the rear taillight area which has been re-painted in trim black. Checking inside the doors and between body panels shows only the factory red oxide primer. The doors close nicely and windows roll up & down without a problem. The convertible top is a new reproduction unit installed this spring. It has the correct reflector material and the fit & finish is great. A convertible top boot is included that matches the interior color. The dash is excellent with no cracks, all the gauges, lights and signals work (really!) although the turn signals are a little tricky. The wear on the interior is from years of careful use. Even the carpet is original! A roll bar was added at some point years ago, it's covered in leather and is missing a piece of the cover. Under the hood is also very original: the cardboard radiator shroud is still intact, and some of the hoses are still the green Leyland pieces. The inline 6 starts and idles nicely with no smoke or unusual noises. The choke has been adjusted and a new cable was installed. The 4-speed transmission is in good working order and goes through the gears well. Steering is tight. As you can see from pictures, the frame and undercarriage are in excellent shape. The floor pans show red primer and the frame is also completely rust free. The rear differential bushings & ears are intact with no signs of damage. The front suspension was rebuilt recently and the car was treated to new brake & clutch hydraulics at that time. A factory steel hardtop is included with the sale. The paint is in good condition and the windows are installed. The interior head-liner is missing, but they're available though a few different aftermarket suppliers. This is a nice, original Triumph that would make a great addition to any collection. Road ready for the spring season.
