Vehicle Description
The Atlanta Showroom is offering this 1969 Triumph TR-6. This
Triumph has beautiful black paint and knock off wheel mounting
along with a rear shock conversion. This electronic overdrive 4
speed has great running in-line 6 powering this British sports car.
The TR6 is a big car compared to many two seaters of the era, and
this helps to give it an air of solidity that can be lacking in
smaller alternatives. Certainly, there are far fewer rattles than
on something like a contemporary Spitfire. There was no rear seat
on the TR6, but the cabin was built for two people to travel in
fair comfort. There is plenty of elbow room, a convenient luggage
space behind the seats and room for lanky legs to stretch. The
fixtures and fittings are not opulent, but they do have a fair
sense of luxury about them. They are traditional too with the dash
layout with the large rev counter and speedo dead ahead with minor
gauges mounted centrally harping right back to the TR2. The seats
are comfortable and durable. The car's size means there is never
any danger of getting that traditional bum-six-inchesoff- the-road
feeling. Instead it feels more of a grand tourer than an out and
out hell-raiser. The steering is fairly accurate and light on the
move. Power delivery from the six-pot engine is smooth and refined,
and more than sufficient to make the tail squat down when you boot
the throttle. The front anti-roll bar helps make the handling more
predictable. The good feedback from the road to the driver is
excellent, so hustling a TR6 becomes a test of driver skill and
control rather than a lottery. If cruising is your game, the
overdrive is geared to place 100mph easily within your grasp. And
there is more than enough torque available to dispatch motorway
overtaking with nothing more than a flick of the switch into direct
drive. Options include: Manual top, wire wheels, vinyl interior,
radial tires. To view the car in greater detail, including 100+ HD
