1976 Triumph TR6

GR Auto Gallery is pleased to offer this highly original, 1976 Triumph TR-6. The car was sold new, April 24, 1976, at George Byers Sons, inc. of Columbus, OH. These appealing sports cars came well equipped from the factory with a spirited 2.5 liter inline 6 cylinder engine, 4-speed synchromesh transmission(this particular TR6 has a brand new transmission with overdrive added), 4-wheel independent suspension, front disc brakes, radial ply tires, wheel trim rims, reclining bucket seats, walnut facia, speedometer with trip odometer, tachometer, lockable glove box, pile carpet, interior courtesy and trunk lights, reflective outline on soft top, zip down rear window, front air spoiler and luggage rack. Other highlights are tonneau cover and convertible top boot. This TR6 remains in excellent, highly original condition. The engine bay and frame and underside were undercoated by Tuff-kote 6 days after the car was purchased new, April 30, 1976 and the paint appears and is believed to be mostly original. As a result, the original core structure of this TR-6 is outstanding. Mechanically, this 1976 TR-6 is one of the best driving TR6's we have had. The car accelerates in all gears, shifts perfectly, tracks straight, brakes properly and behaves well in all driving situations.

This car has recently received over $50,000 in renovations and restorations. Much of the work was done at “Rods &Roadsters” in Memphis Tennessee. Recent replacements that are brand new include: battery, alternator, wiper motor, water pump, fuel pump, fuel lines, gas tank and gas lines, radiator and heater core, wiring harness, all lights and signals, all hoses and gaskets throughout, all gauges were recalibrated and rebuilt, A/C system installed in glovebox, transmission with overdrive gear, high performance brake kit, brakes, brake lines, pads, calipers, suspension kit, struts, shocks, tie rods, competition springs, clutch, convertible top. The carburetors were also rebuilt. There was also heat and sound matting installed into the interior under the carpet. The dash was replaced with true walnut and looks beautiful. The car also received a new ignition system.

The Triumph TR6 is the last of the traditional British Roadsters. These cars offer a pure, open air, sports car motoring experience that is unique to the marquee. The sound, feel and handling is something that any auto enthusiast should experience. Their traditional design, mechanical reliability and parts availability make them easy to own and enjoy. A highly preserved example such as this are a rare commodity as it offers motoring satisfaction as well as being an automotive investment. The car offered here is documented with original window sticker, original owners manual, original “Passport to Service” book, the original Tuff-Kote receipt documenting date of service, service, a large binder that is nicely organized of records, $50,000 in receipts, owner history, research etc. Consider this car with confidence.
