    1971 TR6 Triumph

    1971 Triumph TR6

    Approx. $30,000 in restoration costs

    Complete, documented ownership history

    I purchased the car in 1997 out of PA.

    New top in 1997.

    Restoration started in 1998

    Frame off, repaired (rusted member replaced), & powder coated in 1999

    Tach & Temp gages overhauled in 1999

    Carbs were rebuilt by Apple Hydraulics, NYC, NY in 1999

    Engine rebuilt, new valves valve seats to accept unleaded gas installed in 1999. *No oversized bearings, pistons or piston rings were required in rebuild all standard size components were used as everything was in tolerance. Electronic ignition installed. *Numerous original components were saved and go along with car. *i.e. Distributor, Starter, steering wheel, etc.

    All new interior and carpets installed.

    Complete paperwork and receipts are on file for every part used in the restoration.

    Bodywork was startled in 2002 and completed in 2003

    Restoration completed 2005

    Driven only 916 miles since restoration completion

    I'm selling this for my father, as of right now it is located in Norman OK area just south of OKC. Depending on how the interest is I may bring the car to Wichita KS.

    We are asking $18 500 OBO

    Man she is beautiful... I wish I could afford her. I always wanted a triumph. I looked at a spitfire a couple years ago. Actually looking at those cars is what lead me to the ff mk4...

    Good luck w the sale..

    It is a beautiful car, and she looks outstanding!

    I wish I could swing it, because she would look great in my garage. I don't think you will have it long.

    Best of luck with the sale.

    Regards,

    Steve

    I now have the triumph in Wichita KS. I also have more pics of interior and under side. Since photobucket is screwing me around like many others pm your cell and I can send pics and video of cold start up. The carbs are freshly rebuilt, as in this last week.

    I also have a Factory Five Racing Cobra up For Sale and will be posting an add soon.
