Description:
 This 1972 red TR6 is a real eye-catcher with the top down and the New Tan colored tonneau on.  While we have a lot of very nice—and more expensive--classics in our facility, this car stands out as a crowd-pleaser.  We have been servicing this car since 2002 and we know it to be well maintained by a conscientious owner—a hard-to-find combination.  Finished with a sporty red exterior and New Tan interior, this vehicle is appealing to everyone who enjoys sports cars. This TR6 is in excellent running condition and is being sold for the owner who just purchased a TR8.
This vehicle has a lively 6 cylinder engine that is mated to a
4-speed, non-over drive synchromesh transmission which makes driving it both exciting and enjoyable.  The car starts right up, the engine is strong, the transmission is smooth, and the steering is tight, resulting in a very quick car with good road-holding characteristics.  Equipped with 2 dual downdraft Webber carburetors and a Anza free flow dual exhaust system, this car sounds as good as it performs.
 
This TR6 has been tastefully upgraded with:
• A Motolita wood rimmed steering wheel
• Nicely recovered seats in New Tan
• Matching top, boot cover, and tonneau
• A high-gloss burl walnut dash
• A chrome luggage rack
• An AM/FM CD player

All the lights, gauges and equipment work, and there are four, almost new, 185/15 Michelin X Red Line radials mounted on the wheels. In sum, this attractive TR6 is ready—and able—to drive wherever you might desire.

While the 72,261 miles showing on the odometer are not the vehicle’s actual mileage, we do know that the current owner has driven the car only about 1700 miles in the four years he has owned it; and the vehicle will come with a fully-documented service history since 2002.  Although the car is in very good condition, it is a driver’s car, not a show car.  An earlier re-paint is in very nice condition with the exception of a few minor chips that have been touched up, and some cracking of the paint on the rear body panel between the top and the trunk lid.  A similar condition exists on a small portion of the trunk lid, all of which may have resulted from too thick a coat of paint in those areas.   The interior is generally in fine condition with freshly redone seats, interior door panels, and carpets.  The re-upholsterer of the front seats omitted a small amount of tacking and gluing which, if done, would make the interior almost perfect.  Finally, there is a broken hood hinge bolt on the passenger’s side causing the hood to be somewhat out of alignment, a condition that should be remedied by the new owner.
