We are a low volume dealer with a specialty in European Classics offering an original owner 1972 Triumph TR6.

The car has been uprated for Autocross and or track days and can still be a daily driver.

Some modifications include a smaller steering wheel, Adco rear sway bar, lowered springs, roll bar and lighter fiberglass fenders.

The Engine has less than 10k miles since a rebuild that included a compression bump to 9.5 to 1, engine balanced and bored 30 over and bored to accept cam bearings for the British Leyland S2 hot street cam, aluminum push rods, dual valve springs w aluminum retainers and converted to SU H6 carbs for more tuning choices and variety of needles.

Rebuilds recently this year include New Brakes, New Brake Master Cylinder, New Clutch Master and Clutch Slave, all with Silicone DOT 5 fluid. New Nylon Differential mounts.The Su's were rebuilt and the linkage and throttle bushes tightened up and or replaced. A working choke has been fitted and adjusted.

Condition: there is no rust and the car was repainted over 20 years ago although the paint is showing some age w some minor crazing. No accidents and the frame is in great shape as are the floor boards, rocker panels and rear deck. The engine does not leak and yes there is oil in it! Compression is strong and even and oil pressure is very good.

The car is very quick compared to a stock TR6 yet still cruises comfortably.

Good luck bidding and please ask any questions.

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.
