Description

Fresh from a body-off restoration; rebuilt engine, suspension etc; US model with RHD conversion; ready to be run-in and enjoyed; on offer at no reserve

Dating from January 1971 this smart white TR6 was originally a US market car that’s been brought back to the UK, converted to RHD, fully restored and registered in August 2022.

Our vendor, a retired engineer and restoration specialist, occupies his retirement restoring a couple of cars a year to a high standard, carrying out all the work himself in his workshop at home.

The car was stripped back to a bare chassis, anything that needed it was repaired or replaced, the engine was stripped and rebuilt (buyers, please note the oil will need changing within 100 miles, its got running-in oil in at present).

The car was then re-finished in Old English White, the hood refitted, new wheels, brakes, suspension and exhaust etc. As you’ll see from the underside images, the whole car looks good.

Inside, the vendor was let down by the seat suppliers who sent the wrong seats and then had stock supply problems so this is a job the new owner will need to tackle but it does come with the seats pictured.

Starting promptly and running well on site, the car looks super and represents a great opportunity to acquire a well-restored car with but a few bits to do to complete the package.

The history file includes the V5C showing one UK owner (our vendor), photos of the restoration works and bills for parts purchased.

A cracker with lots to offer.
