This a nicely sorted TR6 that is in regualr use. I drive it to work occasionally and use it for Hill Country Triumph Club outings. The last run was over 200 miles with no issues and it  sits in traffic and doesnt overheat. Its not a show winning car as it has few dings , the dash is not standard and the wiring although reliable is messy. The front Wilwood brakes are great, coupled with stainless braided lines, new servo and aluminum fined rear drums this car pulls up much better than the standard brakes. The 5 speed Toyota gear box makes cruising much nicer in this car. The engine in the car has about 16k miles on it and was a rebuilt motor according to the previous owner. I have since put a new GP2 cam , followers and gas flowed head, new alloy water pump housing and pump. I have owned this car for last 5 years. Its doesnt use much oil and sounds great. I have a spare engine thats been stripped down and inspected , we put new rings, mains bearing and seals in and its comes on the stand.
  • HVDA Toyota 5 speed $2500 upgrade

  • Wilwood front brake calipers $$$ and vented discs, alloy drums on rear with stainless lines throughout.

  • Allloy water pump housing $$$  ,new water pump, rebuilt radiator
  • 123ignition USB programmable distributor , very nice $$$
  • Mossmotors uprated 250hp rear drive shafts, i think prev owner had all the wheel bearings done.
  • New Brake servo , master cylinder,
  • It has good paint from a professional respray in California, Nice interior and good top. No rust southern car.
  • Brand new  stainless exhaust system front to back , much quieter and smoother sounding
  • New battery and alternator.
  • Leather bucket seats much better than the plastic TR6 seats , I am not sure if there were factory upgrade but they suit the car nicely.

This is a car to enjoy the day you buy it, The Hill Country Triumph Club is very active and lots of weekends to trips to join in with . There are members available that work

on these cars professionally if you need help or dont want to work on them yourself.  Its just had new silicon oil , filters , battery and is running great.   I need to sell the car

to put the money into a business venture , its a reluctant sale really as we enjoy the car so the price is set.

thanks for looking please email and I will try to answer any questions and tell you the good and bad points about the car I know. Thanks Glenn.

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.
