1970 Triumph TR6
Triumph’s TR6 was the culmination of a series of logical
developments of the TR sportscar range from the first TR2 of 1953
onwards. It married a smooth and powerful 6 cylinder 2½ litre engine
to a purposeful 2 seater body design. It has always been popular as
it is fast enough to be fun whilst being easier on the pocket than
more exotic cars such as the E Type Jaguar.
We have restored many over the years and continue to service and
maintain many more.
The TR6 was the last TR to have a separate chassis. Incidentally,
the Lucas mechanical injection system is far better performance-wise
than the export spec. twin carb setup (from the saloon range) and
actually is very reliable nowadays, contrary to legend!
Beware of buying l.h.d. ‘California rust-free’ cars - they aren’t
as rust free as you’d like to think and the engine is seriously
detuned. They can cost more to upgrade to European spec than buying
a genuine r.h.d. car . . .
