Only 6, 100 miles since complete frame-off
restoration. The frame is powder-coated, the underside is fully detailed as is the engine compartment, with
polished carbs & intakes. The engine has been upgraded, and the exhaust is stainless steel, to give you the best
sounding and driving car out there. Drive worry free all day long – the oversized radiator fan keeps everything
cool. The suspension was redone to the highest standard, and is ultra-smooth. The 4 speed (+overdrive) transmission
& short throw shifter assure the proper gear for every purpose. Although beautiful enough to be a show car, this is
not a delicate trailer queen – it’s meant to be driven and enjoyed.
The steering is upgraded, the interior is next to perfection, and the burl wood dash is a masterpiece to behold.
Without reservation, this may be the nicest, fastest, best restored, highest quality TR6 in the U.S (possibly the
planet), which handles like a dream! Everything is included – totally restored mechanically and physically.
*“The 2.5 liter engine, reminded us why we love inline sixes… namely for their broad, climbing, torque curve,
and those wonderful sounds they make when you wind them up just a little” *(Classic Motorsports Nov. 2010).
Every system and component in this TR6 has been restored and/or replaced, to create a sophisticated, sporty,
reliable classic that can be driven daily. Superior sound system ($2, 200), five redline tires mounted on wire
wheels, Moss’ “wire wheel spinner”, new top, full tonneau cover, top boot cover, superlative paint, wonderful
finish. Tune-up by the leading performance European sports car authority less than 100 miles ago, 43 photos and
dozens of purchase orders and receipts of the restoration.
He looks great from every angle, and drives as good as he looks. (I purchased the car from actor Jason Lee, and he
nicknamed it Teddy - so it’s a “he”.) A totally rebuilt (and improved) 2.5 liter straight six, twin S.U.
carbs, best intake and exhaust systems, all-independent suspension, high-performance redline tires on new wire
wheels, tuned suspension, great shifting, top notch brakes and the legendary Triumph handling combine to form a
driving experience like no other. A huge amount of documentation, receipts, diagrams & instructions are included.
With everything the TR6 has to offer, it’s easy to see why prices on these powerful sports cars have been
skyrocketing, with no end in sight.
