1973 TRIUMPH, TR-6 - I've owned and cared for this car since 1989. Second owner. No winters or snow. Full restoration of anything that was every needed with full documentation. Many pictures and FaceTime available. According to Hemmings Motor News the most desirable years for TR6 is 1973-1976 so this car is very collectable. Powered by a 2,498 cc in-line six-cylinder motor and a four-speed Manual transmission with Electric Overdrive makes this a classic British sports car. Finished in Bright Red (Code 72) with Black interior (Code 11), makes this one head turning Triumph. Loaded with everything you would expect from a classic British sports car starting with striking good looks, the Rallye 15" wheels look so appropriate on this TR6 and add in the wood grain dash and the functional luggage rack and the really cool dual exhaust. This is considered the last of the true British Sports cars. After the TR-6, they started introducing plastic, vinyl and other man-made materials. The Smiths indicators are the same ones used on the Jaguar XKE from the 1970's. Everything about this sports car is EXCELLENT and worth consideration.
I recently pulled all receipt, appraisals and paperwork - here is a general overview:
Second Owner – purchased in 1989 from private sale in Atlanta, GA. First owner bought this new for his daughter who attended Georgia Tech. The hills on campus proved too much for her to handle and after burning out the clutch, she settled for a small, compact w/automatic transmission.
Appraisal 10/24/89 after purchase was approximately $9500
Appraisal 7/2/93 was approximately $12000,
Appraisal 8/2018 by insurance certified appraiser was approximately $19,500
Currently insured by JC Taylor (Foremost Insurance) for Full Coverage at $20,000
