Vehicle Description
West Coast Classics are proud to present a superb and great daily
driving example of this 1969 TR6 4 speed manual Roadster
Convertible in its original striking 'Damson' (Maroon) factory
color paint with a Tan interior and with a new Black soft top and
tonneau cover and new Red-lines tires.This is obviously one rare
and highly desirable classic British sports car - a completely rust
free and restored as required example of the legendary chrome
bumper TR6 roadster! The trunk, floor boards, rocker panels and all
the typically rust prone areas are all completely solid and rust
free - an obviously always garaged example that has survived
intact!The original 'Damson' (color code 17) color paint is in
simply stunning condition and the newly restored interior is also
as striking condition with 'Tan' bucket seats and matching door
panels, a lovely original steering wheel and original wood
dashboard. The Black color soft top is as new and the car has its
original tonneau cover, original wheels and its original spare
wheel in its storage compartment in the trunk. The Triumph TR6 was
introduced in 1969 and was a smoothly redesigned successor to the
TR5/250. It was facelifted by Karmann of Osnabruck, the legendary
German coachbuilders. The TR6 was produced by Triumph until 1976,
with the later year models suffering from the same dismal fate of
so many other marques of the period, with safety regulations
enforcing uglier bumpers and weaker engines. Therefore these
'early' TR6's with the attractive chrome bumpers have proved the
most desirable and have gained the common acceptance amongst
enthusiasts as being the last true TR.The TR6 also featured and
independent rear suspension, rack and pinion steering, 15-inch
wheels and tires, pile carpet on floors and trunk/boot, bucket
seats and a full complement of instrumentation. Braking was
accomplished by disc brakes at the front and drums at the rear.
Without a doubt this will prove to be one rare piece of British
motoring history - a beautiful example of an early, indeed first
year, chrome bumper 1969 Triumph TR6, a great example for any
Triumph enthusiast or simply any classic British sports car lover
to enjoy today!
