For Sale: 1976 Triumph TR6 in Fredericksburg, Virginia

Vehicle Description

Drive a Legend: 1976 Triumph TR6 Owned by a 4-Star GeneralDiscover an icon of British engineering with an American story: a 1976 Triumph TR6, purchased new by a young Major who would go on to serve as a 4-Star General and Chairman of the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff. After 48 years, this retired officer is passing the torch, offering you the chance to own a piece of history. This Triumph is every bit as spirited today as it was when it first hit the road, a true collector’s gem with a legacy that sets it apart.

What Makes This TR6 Stand Out:

  • Legendary Provenance: Owned by a distinguished VIP, a 4-Star General
  • Very Nice Condition: Well-maintained, retaining its classic appeal
  • Striking Looks: Lustrous Carmine red paint, gleaming chrome
  • Premium Features: Like-new interior, nice convertible top, complete with boot cover and tonneau
  • Iconic Appeal: Look for the 4-star emblem on the windshield—a true show-stopper!

Stunning British Style, Great Driving Experience

Exterior & Body
Finished in a deep Carmine red (paint code 82), this TR6 had a high-quality repaint in 1990 and continues to radiate class. The chrome trim shines, and the body is solid with no rust—just light, typical surface wear underneath. This car’s streamlined silhouette, bright finish, and iconic grille make it an unmistakable British classic.

Interior
The tan upholstery is fresh and inviting, with well-preserved seats and door panels. Both the dash and carpet are clean and cared-for, creating a cabin that's as comfortable as it is stylish.

Engine
The spirited 6-cylinder OHV engine delivers on Triumph’s promise of power and agility. Whether you’re winding through mountain roads or cruising to your local café, this car offers the thrill of classic British motoring at its finest.

Transmission
This Triumph’s 4-speed synchromesh manual transmission shifts with precision, capturing the engaging driving experience beloved by enthusiasts.

Convertible Top, Boot Cover & Tonneau
The black convertible top is in nice condition and simple to operate. Included are both the boot cover for neat stowage and a tonneau cover for comfortable, top-down drives on chilly evenings.

Brakes; Operating and Monitoring Systems
The brakes are disc in the front and drum on the back that work properly and smoothly in bringing the car to a rapid and safe stop from the higher speeds  it’s capable of reaching. 

All of the engine/systems monitoring gauges/lights (speedometer, tachometer, water temperature, fuel, amp and oil pressure) appear to work properly.  Similarly, the lights, horn, and turn signals all work correctly; the back-up lights, such as they are, will need attention.

Drive Home a Legacy

This TR6 doesn’t just look great—it has the story, the style, and the road-ready power to match. Pull up to a car show, a track event, or a fine dining spot, and heads will turn. Whether you’re an investor, an enthusiast, or both, this Triumph offers not just value, but also the thrill of admiration from fellow drivers, fans, and onlookers who can’t resist a “thumbs up.”
