Superb 1974 Triumph TR6 For Sale
TPX 893M began life as a Carmine Red CR spec car with tan interior and obviously had a very sheltered life for the first 10 years before being laid up until 2010. Like opening a time capsule, she emerged still in fantastic condition to the extent that all of the body panels are original with no welding repairs required. A dream prospect for a restoration and highly unusual for a UK car.
The extensive body off restoration was photographed and documented in detail and there is a large file full of invoices and documentation. There is also included with the car a superb full colour glossy hard backed book specially printed just for this car and covering the work done during the restoration. A fantastic thing to have and a real show piece.
The restoration included a change of colour to the very handsome Triumph Royal Blue with black Mohair hood and black interior with leather seats and gorgeous walnut dashboard. The fit and finish is superb and with only 49000 recorded miles it's no surprise.
It was bought by the owner in 2016 as an alternative to his collection of classic motorbikes, however it just isn't being used so, as often happens, the car is now being sold on his behalf. To free up space for more bikes!
The bodywork is fantastic with flawless paint, excellent panel gaps and no unsightly cracks in the wing joints. Chrome is all excellent as are all fittings and trim. The outward appearance is totally standard and enhanced by the excellent Avon CR6ZZ tyres (£200 each!).
Under the skin there are a few light upgrades - a high torque starter motor, electronic ignition, unleaded CP spec cylinder head, Bosch type fuel pump conversion, stainless steel exhaust. All sensible stuff which enhances driveability and reliability.
She starts instantly and idles very smoothly. No rough running on the road and plenty of power and torque make this TR6 an easy way to get somewhere quickly. Brakes and steering are excellent and the suspension soaks up the bumps without any noise or fuss.
The engine compartment is very tidy with everything clean and painted just how it should be.
Looking to the underside you will find a good honest rust free body and chassis. No accident damage or welded repairs and plenty of waxoyl protecting everything. The engine, gearbox and differential are clean and almost totally dry. There really is nothing to see - it's just as you'd want one.
If you are fed up with watching American TV shows showing rust free cars being restored and dreaming of having the same luck over here then dream no more. With no welding having been required I think this is as close as you'll get to an unrestored car and honestly it's very hard to replicate. Don't let anyone tell you that they ran badly and had poor panel fit when they were new. They didn't, but they were made in a time when owners meddled, so it didn't take long for them to get that way!
I am happy to answer any questions about the car from genuine buyers and I would encourage viewing and a test drive. This is a rare opportunity and she won't hang around long. Please contact me on the details below for genuine enquires only.
