This lot will be auctioned via Historics Classic and Sportscar Auctioneers, At the Ascot Racecourse sale on Saturday the 2nd of March 2024, High Street, Ascot, SL5 7JX. The Triumph TR6 was manufactured for seven years from 1969 and by the time production came to an end in July 1976, it was the best-seller of the TR range. The bodywork closely resembled that of the previous model, the Triumph TR5, however the front and rear were squared off and all TR6s featured inline six-cylinder engines. For the US market, the engine was fitted with carburettors whilst, for other world markets including the UK, the TR6 was fitted with fuel-injection. It featured a four-speed manual gearbox, independent rear suspension, rack and pinion steering, 15" wheels and tyres, pile carpet on the floors and boot, bucket seats and a full complement of instruments. In total 94,619 TR6s were built of which 86,249 were sold overseas and only 8,370 were sold in the UK.Originally registered on 4th September 1970, this TR6 is a genuine UK example and still bearing the original fuel-injection system which has been overhauled and works well. Other mechanical work carried out includes an engine rebuild and overhauling the braking system. A new fuel tank and petrol pump have been fitted in the last couple of years, as have two new driveshafts and universal joints. A replacement soft top has been fitted, together with relatively new tyres and carpets. The underside of the car and chassis has also had restoration work carried out recently. However, it has been noted that the chassis is bent on the offside front and will require corrective work. Having not been used much in recent months, the car is also likely to require some additional recommissioning. This 150bhp Triumph TR6 comes with a history folder, a V5C registration document and a Heritage Certificate.
