Vehicle Description
To modernise the Triumph TR5 that had evolved from the Michelotti
designed TR4, Triumph looked to produce a new modern body. Triumph
commissioned Karmann of Germany but the task was difficult as
Karmann had to produce a new body style whilst retaining much of
the original structure. The re-style included a new nose, wings and
a new tail. The result was the 'Kamm' tailed TR6 and was produced
between 1969 and 1976. The home market TR6 initially produced
150bhp but was later detuned to 125bhp. Due to their greater power
output, the early models are sought after amongst the Triumph
enthusiasts. Imported recently from Ontario, this 1971 registered
TR6 requires some restoration although she starts, runs and drives
well with no known faults. Some new suspension parts and brakes
have been fitted recently and it is probably best described as a
rolling restoration. Supplied with a Nova certificate to enable
registration in the UK, this Triumph TR6 is offered for sale
without reserve. For sale by auction on Saturday 23 September 2017
