1972 triumph tr6 - tampa, flstreetside classic carstampa, fl 33559ph: 8135011630web: n/aoptions:description:for many, the triumph tr6 is the pinnacle of the traditional british roadster. While all classic british roadsters are attractive, this one has something a little extra going for it. The black pinstripe that runs the full length of the car does a nice job of uniting the grille, a-pillar, and flat kamm back into one cohesive design. And it also ensures this convertible looks great with the top up or down. The interior is another hallmark of the great british roadster. With a wood patterned dashboard full of original smiths gauges, it definitely has a hand-crafted european feel. Everything has a deep, dark appearance, including the bucket seats, carpeting, and door panels. The tr6 is a favorite on american roads because it is one of the most powerful cars to come out of the sprightly british sports car era. The 2. 5-liter inline-six back by dual stromberg carburetors knows how to move the lightweight tr6 with quick acceleration and sustainable cruising speeds. And even when stopping, control is well in hand with front disc brakes and the grip of modern bf goodrich tires. This triumph has so much originality that we even believe the mileage could be accurate. Bucket Seats

Parts missing are: windshield, bars for convertible, emblems on front hood, piece to one of the bumpers, the starting crank and the original metal breathers
The Royal Blue paint has a sophisticated presence that coordinates nicely with the darker elements like the taunt black roof, fresh weatherstripping, and the Spitfire stripe on the rocker panels AM/FM

The triumph tr6 is one of the last great british roadsters. It combines the features we enjoy such as a powerful and lively six-cylinder motor as well as a full interior. But it doesn't betray the sprightly nature that makes us fall in love on the backroads. The car was taken to bare metal and artfully sprayed with the right coats. Having this level of quality really brings out the tr6's design cues. This continuation of the tr series had more muscular fender lines. Even the little details are aggressive such as bright trim ring around the factory wheels that are reminiscent of chevy's rally package. There was also no mistaking its heritage with a flat kamm-back treatment that was also seen on the larger triumphs of the day. There's a minimal amount of brightwork to keep these cars uncluttered, but this one has been updated to keep shiny parts looking their best. The wraparound bumpers have a mirror-like appearance that can only come from a nice investment in this roadster. The interior is another hallmark of the great british roadster, which is why it's nice to see so much invested in the restoration. The real wood dashboard, wheel rim, and shift knob have all been given a fine lacquer finish that gives an instant feeling of craftsmanship. Everything else has a deep, dark appearance from the bucket seats, to the fresh carpets, to the gearshift boot. The tr6 is particularly coveted for its motor. It has 2. 5-liter inline-six backed by dual stromberg carburetors, so it doesn't suffer from the anemic reputation that other british roadsters have. In fact, this is one of the larger motors out of the iconic era of sprightly roadsters. Besides just looking tidy, the new components and rebuilt carbs mean the engine fires up easily. In a car that weighs barely 2,500 lbs, it has quick acceleration and the power to keep pulling well into highway speeds. Bucket Seats✔ AM/FM
