1971 Triumph Tr6 on 2040-cars

I HAVE A 1971 TR6 FOR SALE. THE CAR WAS A RUNNING DRIVING NICE CAR AND THE PREVIOUS OWNER SHOWED HIS NEIGHBOR WHO IS A BODYMAN THE CRACKS IN THE PAINT AND HE SAID    NO PROBLEM   ILL BRING MY SANDERS AND WE WILL REPAINT IT.

THEY TOOK IT DOWN TO FIND POORLY DONE 1980'S BODYWORK SO THEY STARTED DOING SOME PATCHES AND DID THE L/S

ALMOST 3 YEARS LATER THE NEIGHBOR (BODYMAN) NEVER CAME BACK TO HELP AGAIN.....

THE R/S STILL NEEDS TO BE PATCHED (QUARTER PANEL ONLY) AND THEN DO THE FILLER WORK OR REPLACE THE PANEL.

EITHER WAY ITS NOT A LOT OF WORK

I STARTED AND RAN THE CAR TODAY        

THE FUEL SMELLED OLD AND YOU COULD SMELL THE GAS AS IT WAS RUNNING SO IT SHOULDNT BE DRIVEN TILL THAT IS DONE    

THE FIRST THING IS DRAIN THE FUEL   CLEAN TANK AND DO THE CARBS OR CLEAN THEM.

INTERIOR IS ALL THERE ALL ORIG AND IN GOOD SHAPE. I HAVE ALL PARTS   BUMPERS STRAIGHT  CLEAN OR RECHROME

BRAKES FEEL GOOD   FLUID LEVEL HIGH   SLAVE FOR CLUTCH SAME AND CLUTCH FEELS GOOD.

EXHAUST IS OLD BUT QUIET.  GREAT TIRES  HAVE ALL WHEEL TRIM

WILL NEED 2 SEAT BACKS AND                        2 SEAT DIAPHRAMS  23.00 EACH     PREVIOUS OWNER SAID THEY DID SOME REAR SUSPENSION WORK TOO    I DIDNT GET UNDER IT TO LOOK BUT HE WAS A STRAIGHT SHOOTER GUY. 

GOOD TOP         NEEDS BOTH HEADLIGHT HARNESS'S IN FRONT  THEY ARE 11.00 EACH

YOU NEED TO HAVE THE ABILITY TO WELD TO FIX OR REPLACE THE R/S QUARTER.  I WAS GONNA FIX IT.

THE FLOORS   AND  TRUNK ARE REALLY CLEAN AND SOLID.       THERE MAY BE OTHER SMALL SPOTS OR WELDING THAT WOULD NEED TO BE DONE.  ITS A TINY CAR AND AN EASY RESTORATION PROJECT.

I WORKED ON THESE IN THEFAST RESTORE AND DRIVE FROM WHAT I SEE

I HAVE A BOX OF PARTS AND ALL IS THERE. 70'S FOR A LIVING. THIS IS A GOOD CANDIDATE FOR A CHEAP WINTER RESTORATION.

I HAVE IT LISTED LOCALLY TO TRADE FOR A C3 OR C4 CORVETTE OR A SMALL BOSTON WHALER TYPE BOAT OR MIATA SO I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO END THE AUCTION EARLY.

I THINK SOMEONE COULD HAVE THIS CAR READY TO GO IN A FEW WEEKS.

I HAVE A LOT OF MONEY INVOLVED AS I ACTUALLY TRADED IT FOR HARDWOOD FLOORING THAT I PURCHASED TO PUT IN MY SHORE HOUSE.

8800.00 WORTH OF TOP OF THE LINE MANNINGTON ENGINEERED WOOD FLOORING.

HURRICANE SANDY CAME AND DEVISTATED THE HOME BEFORE WE COULD PUT THE FLOOR DOWN AND WE DECIDED TO TILE AS TILE IS SEALED    HARDWOOD IS NOT SO I TRADED FOR THE CAR

STARTING AT A LOW PRICE   THIS IS A SOLID CAR  SOLD AS IS  ITS A PROJECT THAT NEEDS TO BE RESTORED.  RADIO WORKS  HORN WORKS  GUAGES ALL WORK  DASH IS CLEAN AND NO CRACKS    

I THINK IF YOU DRAIN THE FUEL   PUT CLEANER IN TANK AND CLEAN AND ADJUST CARBS  MOUNT SEATS BUMPERS LIGHTS ETC YOU COULD HAVE A DRIVABLE PROJECT    THIS CAR IS NOT BAD FROM WHAT I SEE  MOSTLY COSMETIC WORK POSSIBLE SOME LOWER RUST REPAIR IN WELLS BUT THIS IS NOT A 2500.00 CAR    ITS ALSO ALREADY TAKEN DOWN SO THERE ARE NO SURPRISES     A CAR THAT NEEDS A COMPLETE RESTORATION FROM THE START IS ALWAYS FULL OF SURPRISES WHEN YOU GET INTO IT     THIS ONE AT LEAST YOU KNOW WHAT YOU HAVE FROM THE START............................  ALSO I LOOKED AT SEVERAL BEFORE GETTING THIS ONE    THEY ALL SMELL LIKE A MOLDY MESS   THIS DOESNOT  ALTHOUGH YOU CAN SMELL THE OLD GAS  THE INTERIOR  WIRING AND ALL ARE IN TACT AND DECENT SHAPE......................   ITS BEEN STORED IN A GARAGE FOR THE LAST 4 YEARS NOW UNDER A TARP
