1973 Fabulous Original LHD TR6 SOLD

Triumph TR6 . 1973 For Easy Restoration
Really good low mileage original condition car in French Blue with black trim. Starts first time, idles sweetly and could drive now no problem. Only 53000 mls from new . Believed to be true. Car still has all original wings , sills , floors , boot floor etc. The car was ziebart undersealed from new and although its deemed un- sightely now, It really has saved the cars bodywork over all the years. I spent an hour cleaning a lot off in the engine bay so that you can see the amazing difference underneath the black gunge! once clean its like new.. The door shuts and seams are perfect as are the door bottoms. All the
original paint is still intact in the engine bay. The wing fronts which usually rot are perfect as are the rear wings. All wheel arches and wing anchor points are perfect and still have all the drain holes. There are some peppery holes in one sill but easily rectified. Bonnet and boot lid are perfect. The fit , finish and gaps of the car are absolutely spot on, and just as Triumph made it. Doors close with a lovely easy clunk as opposed to a huge clatter you often witness. Most of the exterior paintwork is very worn now, with original primer showing, so a great paint job will transform the appearance. I would keep the paintwork absolutely as it is with that fantastic worn patina that everybody loves these days. I guarantee more people would look at it at shows than all the mint ones.
This was a father and son project in Virginia ten years ago but was abandoned when the father became ill. They bought a lot of new mechanical parts and started doing a lot of great work . The engine bay has a very desireable pair of S. U. carburetors with matching air filters. A new Lucas alternator is fitted. There is an oil filter housing upgrade to the new spin off type and a new fuel pump is fitted. Oil is clean as a whistle and no sludge in the top. Engine is in top condition, nice and quiet with 60 lb oil pressure at idle. New brake and clutch master cylinders are evident along with slave cylinders and new pipework on fuel lines. Gearbox selection and clutch are spot on, Inside the boot is all original paint with perfect floor , as you can see in the pictures its fully coated with the ziebart stuff but its mint underneath.. The seats are really spot on, even the squabs are proper shape and not flattened but the side bolsters do require new foams. The door cards are pretty good also. All guages and switchgear work and have nice unworn clear decals. Steering wheel is lovely. The dash top is not cracked or split but the dash facia itself is cracking, [an easy home repair]. The hood frame works perfectly but the hood itself is complete and watertight but tatty. There is a full tonneau and hood bag supplied. They are as new condition.
Underneath the car looks really solid with only light surface rust to the surfaces and no evidence of any accidents or repairs. I brought this car over myself with another car only to share the container space and halve the shipping expenses. i just couldnt leave it there so i'm not after profits just enough to help recoup my ocean costs.
If you are practically minded and dont want years of work i think you could have this car on the road in a very short time and then do a rolling restoration as you wish whilst getting enjoyment from it. I have about 90 pictures on Flickr so send me your email address and take a look . If you want the car it is for sale with all taxes paid and the documents needed to register in the Uk, takes 10 days and costs £55 The price is £7500 . You can ring me for details to view it . Im in Lancashire and am home most of the time.
Heres the link to the pictures. Thank You
