triumph tr6 1971 CP model

DEPOSIT TAKEN. CAR IS NOW SOLD


1971 TRIUMPH TR6 CP MODEL. 150BHPI BOUGHT THIS CAR LAST YEAR TO KEEP FOR SUMMER USE. ITS ONLY FOR SALE DUE TO A MOVE ABROAD. THE CAR HAD BEEN OFF THE ROAD IN DRY STORAGE FOR APPROX 6 YEARS. AND ALTHOUGH NEEDED SOME RE-COMMISIONING WAS IN GOOD SHAPE. I HAVE SINCE DONE ALL WORK REQUIRED. BRAKES. BRAKE PIPES. ITTED A NEW RADIATOR. MORE AS A PRECAUTION. AND ALSO AN AUXILLIARY FAN. THE CHASSIS NEEDED NO WELDING AT ALL. WHICH WAS A SURPRISE!!. AND IS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION. IF I AM HONEST. THE TWO REAR OUTRIGGERS. ALTHOUGH NOT STRUCTURAL. HAVE BEEN REPAIRED AND IN MY OPINION COULD HAVE BEEN WELDED BETTER. I SAY THIS AS WELDING IS MY DAY JOB. SO MAYBE I'M BEING A BIT PICKY. I HAD PLANNED TO RE-DO THIS. THAT SAID THE CAR FLEW THREW ITS MOT WITH NO ADVISORIES. THE MAIN GOOD POINTS ON THE CAR ARE THESE:1. UNLEADED HEAD CONVERSION.  2: BRAND NEW OVERDRIVE GEARBOX. WITH RECEIPT. FITTED BY PREVIOUS OWNER.  3. BRAND NEW HOOD FITTED. THIS IS A MOSS ITEM. AND HAS THE REMOVABLE REAR WINDOW. 4. NEW DOOR CARDS AND TOP TRIMS. AGAIN MOSS. 5. NEW MOSS CARPET SET. ( DELUXE SET. )6  NEW MOTALITA LEATHER STEERING WHEEL. ( ORIGINAL INCLUDED)7. NEW HALOGEN HEADLIGHTS FITTED. (YOU CAN NOW SEE AT NIGHT!!!)8. NEW FRONT BUMPER9.  TWIN SU CONVERSION10. STAINLESS STEEL EXHAUST WITH TWIN PIPES
THERE ARE INEVITABLY A FEW NOT SO GOOD POINTS. IT IS 42 YEARS OLD AFTER ALL. I DID A BIT OF DIGGING AFTER I BOUGHT IT. MAINLY BECAUSE THE CONDITION WAS SO GOOD. THE CAR WAS AUCTIONED BY BROOKS IN 1998. CATALOGUE NUMBER 92. THE CAR HAD BEEN SUBJECT TOAN EXTENSIVE RESTORATION. AND WAS RE-PAINTED DARK BLUE. ORIGINALLY IT WAS WHITE. THIS IS CONFIRMED BY THE PLATE UNDER THE BONNET. THE V5 DOES HOWEVER SAY BLUE. I WOULD SAY THAT ALLTHE WINGS HAVE BEEN REPLACED. POSSIBLY THE DOORS TOO. HENCE NO CORROSION. THE CAR COULD POSSIBLY BENEFIT FROM A RE-PAINT. AGAIN I'M PROBABLY BEING PICKY. BUT IT WOULD TRANSFORM THE CAR AND INCREASE ITS VALUE SIGNIFICANTLY. THERE ARE A COUPLE OF BLEMISHES HERE AND THERE. AND THE BONNET HASN'T BEEN PAINTED PARTICULARY WELL. MECHANICALLY SHE RUNS REALLY WELL. GOOD OIL PRESSURE ETC. AND THE MILEAGE OF 58000 I WOULD SAY IS GENUINE. BECAUSE OF LENGHY PERIODS OF STORAGE. I DO HAVE A FEW BITS AND PIECES WHICH CAN GO WITH THE CAR. AND ALSO A FACTORY STEEL HARDTOP. WHICH WILL NEED RESTORING. ALTHOUGH ITS NOT ROTTEN. THIS IS AVAILABLE SEPARATELY. PLEASE FEEL FREE TO ASK ANY QUESTIONS. I HAVE TRIED TO COVER AS MUCH AS I CAN. THERE COULD BE SOMETHING I'VE FORGOTTEN. SO PLEASE ASK. I HAVE PRICED THE CAR TO SELL. AND I THINK THIS IS VERY GOOD VALUE FOR AN EARLY CP CAR THATS IN THIS CONDITION. CASH ON COLLECTION OR BANK TRANSFER
COUPLE OF THINGS I FORGOT: THE CAR HAS HAD THE SPAX DAMPER CONVERSION AT THE REAR. THERE IS A SMALL TEAR IN THE DRIVERS SEAT. I HAVE PUT MORE PICTURES UP AS PER REQUESTS.
THANKS FOR LOOKING
