@Journey2, just went through every photo. As a collector of Tr6’s for many years, I wanted to make sure other photos were not put on the auction. Same car in every photo. Using collectors car insurance, it’s not necessary to have the smog equipment to register. Interior is a mix - tastefully done with tr4 door panels, and custom front seats-(very comfortable).
Just looking at the photos... Parts are missing and other parts are NOT 1973. It also appears to me that the required "smog" equipment for 1973 is not installed on the vehicle. Photos appear to be of two different vehicles.
Good morning. As we come down to the last 4 hours of the auction, I’d like to thank everyone for their comments/questions, and bids. @InTheHunt, I’ve owned it less than a year, taken it to the next level with interior redo, exterior refinishing , and dialed in mechanically. I’ll be including parts with the sale assuming it sells. This will include original Carbs, air cleaner, front licence plate frame from moss motors, brake pads, with a box full of miscellaneous parts for upkeep. I’ll be checking in periodically to answer any questions before the end of the auction.
Hello Seller, How Long have you had it? Thank you

Good morning. Thanks again for the continued bids. To clarify videos, all are of the 73 Tr6. When I purchased the car, I didn’t see a need for a compression test. Car doesn’t smoke, it’s clearly been rebuilt, and has more power than factory specs. Assuming it sells, the new owner will be very pleased.
Greetings Any compression data across cylinders? Also the video(s) are labeled 1972 TR6 Overdrive Drive...but the car for dale is a 73. Just need clarity. Thanks
Good morning and thank you for the continued bids. @JD5280, greatly appreciated, but the car includes a tonneau cover. Also, I do have a spare wire wheel,(note shown in trunk photo). I’ve submitted 3 videos of the car, and expect them to be uploaded by Autohunter by tomorrow. I’ll be checking in periodically to answer any questions and view comments.

Good afternoon fellow Triumph Enthusiasts. Fortunately, this is a rust free example with all original body panels with excellent gaps. It’s a California/Arizona car. Engine was rebuilt by previous owner 10 years ago. Clutch was replaced 3 years ago, and I’ve recently replaced the clutch master cylinder. It runs exceptionally well with more power than most on the market. The carbs are from a 68 gt6 which improves performance. Car shifts as it should- synchros are good in every gear. All fluids have been replaced, new plugs and wires, along with points. I’ve had the car resprayed and it shows very well. Videos will be posted tomorrow. Thank you for the initial bids.
