1972 TRIUMPH TR6

2498cc, manual with overdrive. This red Triumph TR6 was built in May 1972 and, according to the accompanying BMIHT heritage certificate, was originally a North American export finished in Damson and destined for New Jersey, USA. Fitted from new with disc wheels, overdrive, heater, laminated windscreen and inertia reel seat belts, the car was subsequently imported to the UK where it was first registered on 8th October 1998. It is now right-hand drive, and its odometer is showing 12,430 miles. The latest V5C indicates two previous owners in the UK, and the car has an advisory-free MoT valid until 16th June 2026.

It comes with a large collection of receipts, one showing that nearly £2200 was spent at TRGB in 2019 for a recommissioning process which involved fitting a new fuel tank, rustproofing the underbody and rebuilding the carburettor. There is also a receipt for an unleaded head conversion, again carried out by TRGB. The car has recently received a new clutch master and slave cylinder, brake pipes, battery, alternator and electronic ignition plus associated parts, and the engine has a spin-off oil filter conversion. 

Paperwork includes the V5C, heritage certificate, original handbook, glovebox-sized repair guide and the aforementioned receipts. Spare keys are also present.
