Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Dual Strombergs, Goodyear tires, woodgrain dash, newer Jensen CD stereo, wood shift knob.

Condition

Decent bumpers and top. Somewhat dull but presentable older repaint with a crack on the tail and chips at the top of the hood. Black duct tape is covering up big rips on the driver seat, and there's a big rip out of the padding at the bottom of the dash. Faded, cracking woodgrain. Tidy and original underneath, and showing 73,261 believable miles. With the previous owner for 25 years. A driver-quality TR6 in a flattering color. No stunner, but a fun, basic vintage roadster.

Market commentary

There were deals to be had in Kissimmee, and this was one of them. This TR6 could have brought another two or three grand without being expensive, leaving the buyer plenty of room for a desperately needed re-upholstering in addition to the other issues here and there that will most likely pop up with an old Triumph like this. Mecum also sold this TR6 with exactly the same result in Chicago in October. No harm, no foul.
