Triumph TR6 5 Speed

Description

1974 TR6 5 speed completely restored

Will accommodate tall drivers

I bought the car 8 years ago. The car I always wanted since age 16. Car was in a heated garage and left there, it must have spent over half its life in storage. It took me 3 years to restore. Car was treated multiple times with Ziebart when I found it. All the body panels including the rockers, floor pans and trunk pan are original and rust free.For those of you looking to buy a car like this at a low price not restored I would seriously reconsider; buy it all done instead; don’t make the same mistake I did, the other way will probably end up costing you a lot more time, money and maybe your relationship; if you are in one, inthe end you probably won’t end up with a car like mine. This car drives like a dream, no rattles or squeaks, lots of power, handles and sounds great, a real head turner. I don’t even know where to start but here goes.

This is a body off rotisserie restoration / nut and bolt restoration. I worked at a truck shop for 20 years. All the nuts, bolts and steel are all truck grade high quality. All the parts came from Moss motors and Good parts.
