9/6/2015- Price Reduction Questions 858-216-5892 You are bidding on my MUCH LOVED 1973 Triumph TR6 (VIN # CF11185U) Pimento Red with Tan interior. The car has just had very major and extensive engine work done (see Mechanical below). I purchased the car from the original owner over 38 years ago. The car has never been restored but always kept in good running condition. The car has lived in the San Diego, California area all of its life (Purchased from Graham Automotive, San Diego with the original “Passport To Service”) and garaged for 95% for its life. The odometer reads 64020 miles but I ignored a broken speedometer and think the true mileage is around 94,000 miles. Up to June 2014, the car was used for bi-weekly commuting. I have over 25 years of receipts. All work (except oil changes) for the past 12 years have been done by the famous Ken Russell of British Automotive. Clean title in hand. I can send more and larger pictures, or photograph any area of the car you would like to see. Please contact me. Body: The body has the original paint, so of course it is not as shiny as it was when I bought it, but still not too bad either. The car was bumped in the back while parked before I bought it so that the lower rear valence has a little damage. The front of the bonnet has a very slight crease. There are two holes on the right wing where the mirror used to be. There are four (4) holes in the rear trunk lid for a luggage rack (which I have). As a southern California car, there is really no rust damage anywhere. There is very slight rust on the floorboards, but very normal on any convertible car. The car also has a roll bar for safety (installed professionally). Overall the body is very sound. Interior: The seats were recovered in the early 80’s and the driver’s seat lower diaphragm was replaced in 2007. The carpets underneath the seats need to be replaced but are covered by rubber mats in footwells. The dash top is cracked in 2 places and 1 each on the switch plinth and the right crash pad. The door cap and pull on both doors has just been replaced. The hinges on the glove box could use some attention. There is a Formula France (I think) steering wheel on the car but I have the original. There is a Blaupunkt Daytona stereo and while the radio works fine, the cassette does not function correctly. The convertible top is old but in good condition and the rear window is clear. Mechanical: The engine has just had some very major work done. In fact, almost a full engine overhaul was performed (again by Ken Russell of British Automotive). I have the details and can supply you with the invoices which list all the work just completed. In part, it received a full valve job, new pistons and rings, a new camshaft and lifters, oil pump, timing chain, and rod bearings-plus more. The valve job was very complete with new valves and valve guides (bronze valve guides), valve springs. Over $6000 just invested. The car has a Crane electronic ignition, new fuel pump, spin on oil filter, and a carburetor shield. The gearbox was overhauled about 28,000 miles ago. There is a drip at the differential but very small. The radiator was recored, along with a new water pump, hoses and fan belt about 5,000 miles ago. The tires are Doral 205/65R15 (10,000 miles) the speedometer has been recalibrated but the odometer is 7% high. All lights and gauges are working. The only thing that I know that does not work is the window washer. New battery. THIS CAR IS VERY MECHANICALLY SOUND.

1976 TRIUMPH TR-6 ROADSTER This two owner restored as needed 1976 Triumph TR6 is a superbly kept and cared for example from the final year of TR6 production. This TR6 is factory correct Java Green with a black soft top and black interior. Never fully restored, this TR6 has been immaculately kept its whole life, benefitting from a professional trim-off repaint in its correct Java Green paint. The black vinyl interior showcases a well-preserved wood dash and bucket seats. Power comes from a 2.5 Liter inline-six engine under the hood that is paired with a proper 4-speed manual gearbox. The car was delivered new in San Jose, California and remained with its original owner, who later moved to Monterey, until 2004 when he sold it to the second owner, also in California. I purchased it at the Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale 2015 car auction. Included with the purchase are copies of the original title and 2003 California registration renewal, both in the same owner’s name, various receipts, owner’s manual, and original factory sales brochure, two sets of keys, and an assortment of TR6 information. Also included in print form will be an assortment of photographs, as well as a CD with all the photos that were used for this listing. Odometer is at 27,635 but titled is listed as "Exempt”.
