This is a beautiful early model TR6. There has been a lot of work and $ spent to make this a fun and reliable driver. It is one of the most fun TRs I have driven. The gorgeous red paint draws lots of attention and thumbs up wherever we go. I was going to have the body colored bumpers rechromed to be more original but I actually like the look. This is a very solid car. I crawled underneath and could not find any rust. The 72 spoke wire wheels are newer and in excellant condition. The interior while not new is in very good condition. It recently had a new wood dash installed and new top dash pad. I just use the tonneau cover but comes with the soft top frame. I also have an original boot cover with it. I have a very thick folder of receipts of work that has been done including the following:

  • New starter
  • installed new wiring harness with new grommets
  • Removed istruments and old dashboard and installed new one
  • Cleaned and repainted instrument bezels
  • Installed and rewired new horns and new horn push fittings
  • Installed a new radiator cowl at front of vehicle
  • Installed some new dash switches
  • Installed new glove box lock
  • Put in new brake light switch
  • New bulb fittings and ground wiring for rear lights
  • new bulbs where needed, cleaned and reground rear license plate lights
  • Installed new turn signal switch
  • Put correct fuses in fuse box
  • New vacumn lines and fittings
  • Fitted plastic behind door panels (to protect cardboard from moisture inside the doors.
  • Replaced broken door parts
  • Installed new fuel sending unit.
  • Installed new alternator
  • Installed new fan belt and alternator bracket.
  • Replaced all brake parts including hoses and caliper assemblies.
  • Replaced Master clutch cylinder

All gauges work. Has a radio but needs antenna installed. If you look at the Haggerty Insurance website they have up to date values of cars. I consider this car to be a strong #3 which is currently valued between $14,000. to $21,000. per below. My reserve is close to half that so could be a very good deal for winning bidder.

*Please feel free to email with questions and to setup an inspection of the car. Inspections must take place before bidding not after. If you do not personally inspect the car or have someone inspect it on your behalf then you must agree to positive feedback. I say this because although I try to disclose everything to my knowledge concerning condition of the car my opinion may differ from yours on certain issues. If you do not perform due diligence on this or any other vehicle then it would be totally unfair for you to leave negative feedback and ruin my rating because you disagree with something you should have been aware of before your purchase by having it inspected to your satisfaction or not. If you are a serious bidder I will send you my phone number to answer any other questions you may have.

BIDDERS WITH ZERO FEEDBACK OR A FEEDBACK SCORE OF UNDER 10 MUST ASK PERMISSION TO BID OR I WILL CANCEL YOUR BID. IT ONLY TAKES A FEW SECONDS TO ASK --- IF YOUR SERIOUS - SEND THE E-MAIL.

Car is advertised locally and I reserve the right to close auction down at any time. This car will not be released until all funds are cleared. Deposits are not refundable.

Overseas bidders are welcome....I will help the transport truck load your car.

Jaguar F Type V6 S vs Triumph Street Triple R in open-air track attack

Sun, 21 Sep 2014

Typically, these track battle videos pair up car against car or, in more disparate circumstances, car versus crossover, as we saw the other day. While the outcome of that battle was quite predictable, what'll happen when an equally fetching (and fast) four-wheeler is put up against one of the icons of the two-wheeled world? Evo just had to find out.
Matching up a Jaguar F-Type V6 S Convertible against a Triumph Street Triple R is at least more of an even fight than the last battle between the Porsche Cayman GTS and Macan Turbo. The Triumph has a 675-cc engine to work with, and is very light. Meanwhile, the Jag has a thumping 380-horsepower, 3.0-liter, supercharged V6 to haul about it's considerably heftier heft. Who will come out on top?
You'll need to watch the full video to find out.
