Triumph GT6

Engelsk hot rod. En liten Triumph GT 6, med en uppskrämd 2.5l motor från TR6. En riktigt tuff liten bil som åker ifrån många betydligt dyrare och exklusivare sportbilar. Nybesiktigad. Mätarställning avläst och kan ej garanteras. Kvitton finns på allt arbete utfört de senaste åren. Ny koppling 2025. Byter gärna upp eller ner. Se videon på vår hemsida classix.se

Exterior: This Triumph GT6 MK2 had a restoration 25+ years ago and it still looks great today. It was at that time built also for “track day” use. A roll cage was fitted. The car has a lower harder suspension and a set of cool time-period correct wheels fitted with new tyres up front. Underneath it is nice and clean. No corrosion or thick rust protection. As you can see, the bumpers were removed during the restoration to lighten the load.

Interior: In this Triumph GT6 MK2 1969, the interior is very original and in good condition. Only the roll bar reminds you that this car means business. A smaller steering wheel is fitted, and it is perhaps not so pretty, but it feels very good when you are driving. In other words, this car is all about driving, instead of the original 2l Triumph GT6 engine here the 2.5l from a TR6 has been fitted together with headers and a free flow exhaust. Triple Webers will throw in as much fuel as they possibly can to give you that ultimate rush when this car takes off. At the moment, the car does not have a brake booster, but I am thinking of fitting one. The GT6 weigh around 800kg and has around 170hp.

History and maintenance: The Triumph GT MK2 was registered for the first time in Sweden on May 20th 1969. In 1979, it came to the second owner, and then just after one year to the third. In 1982, it came to the fourth owner, and he decided to restore the Triumph and make it so he could also take it to the track if he wanted to. But shortly after the restoration, and the car was left sitting in the heated garage until I was lucky enough to find it in April 2021. It was love at first sight, but she certainly did not love me back. It did start when I got it home, but the fuel pump shortly failed and the battery had seen better days.
