Some of us have a different flavor of fun, and in this episode we'll take you on a journey of some of what we do when restoring a car such as this Triumph TR6. This is for you MN Triumph Club!
Minor point...it's not a 6 speed because 3rd gear with overdrive is virtually identical to regular 4th gear. You would engage O/D after 4th gear....then you stay in O/D, shifting between what is effectively 5th gear (4th w/ O/D) or 4th gear (3rd w/ O/D) as needed.
Hi great video...great car!! My 74 TR6 wont come up to temperature and consequently runs cold @ 1/3 to 1/4 on the temp guage. Do you think this a thermostat problem?? Any help will be greatly appreciated. cheers.
@themaltbar (6 years later!) Could be a thermostat, could also be a tired voltage stabilizer...see if your fuel gage also reads low (like reading 1/2 tank when full).

I had a TR6 in the early 70s.
It is a real mans car.
Drives like a sports car
Feels like a sports car.
I had wire wheels on mine.
Awesome car.

Have you seen the tr6 on carbones car painting channel ? Can you please advise how much to pay for one in that state ?
Does your entire shop smell of burned wiring? j/k! Beautiful car!
Is that grille stock?
It looks like it's aftermarket, if it is, can you tell me the manufacturer and if it would fit a TR250?

@paul austin That's the dumbest statement in the history of the world.
