Gateway Classic Cars of Denver welcomes this 1974 (believed to be
actual miles) Triumph TR6! This Numbers matching TR6 has : New
Paint, New Leather Interior, New Rubber Seals, Rebuilt Rubber Rear
Suspension, New Dash, New Tires and Brakes. All TR6s were powered
by Triumph's 2.5-litre straight-6, with the same Lucas mechanical
fuel-injection as the TR5 for the United Kingdom and global
markets, and carburetted for the United States, as had been the
US-only TR250. The TR6PI (petrol-injection) system helped the
home-market TR6 produce 150 bhp (110 kW) (152 hp DIN) at model
introduction. The TR6 featured a four-speed manual transmission. An
optional electrically switched overdrive operated on second, third,
and fourth gears on early models and third and fourth on later
ones. Construction was traditional frame. Other features included
semi-trailing arm independent rear suspension, rack and pinion
steering, 15-inch (380 mm) wheels and Michelin asymmetric XAS tyres
which dramatically improved the handling, pile carpet on floors and
trunk/boot, bucket seats, and full instrumentation. Brakes were
discs at the front and drums at the rear. A factory steel hardtop
was optional, requiring two people to deploy. The dashboard was
walnut veneer. Other factory options included a rear anti-roll bar
and a limited-slip differential. The UK version TR6PI could
accelerate from zero to 60 mph (97 km/h) in 8.2 seconds and had a
top speed of 120 mph (190 km/h) according to Autocar magazine.[6]
As of 2016, approximately 3400 licensed for use and 1300
temporarily stored SORN TR6s were registered with the DVLA in the
