1973 Triumph TR6 Restoration - Part 39 - Almost Done

The list is getting smaller and smaller. There are a few more details, but it is mostly done. I am really happy with how she turned out.

Perhaps you can give us an update on what happened to the car? Did you guys sell it or do you still have it. Also, a small tip, when you drill into the metal after a car has been painted, like you did for the sill trims, use some “Loctite” to dress the bare metal before you present the rivets. It creates a water barrier and stops rust forming. Loctite is easy as it comes in a little tube that makes application easy.

You need black shutz below the chrome mouldings. You should take the vinyl shifter boot of the other TR in the shop if it's in good shape. Looking great!

[@RustyBeauties]

Hmm. I will look at the shifter boot. I might make my own.

Beautiful! I think the TR6 is the best looking car design. I drove a 1967 Triumph Spitfire MK3 in high school but always wanted the bigger TR6.👍 I just subscribed. Love watching your videos.

[@alanm.4298]

Elin, you need to make some merch to sell here... T-shirts, hoodies, hats, stickers that say "IT IS WHAT IT IS".

The only problem with the Redlines are that they’re too hard. BUT I still haven’t seen a tire that enhances the cars appearance better than them. Why not just paint a red line on Your Bridgestone tire?

[@jamespayne1160]

I would have hidden it in the ashtray on the top of the dashboard. Would have been a pretty neat solution.

[@mrichardweiss2365]

What size tires (redline) where eventually put on?

[@johndrake1506]

What size was the luggage rack on the boot lid?

[@1970sman]

Beautiful car, love it.

[@mikebills9343]

Looks fantastic

[@charlieharrah5035]

Awesome ! I aapreciate your love of the TR6 , I once did the same thing and pushed the headrest down before the grommets.

Is there an episode featuring fuel line replacement from tank to engine bay? { bending and routing }

[@richardwhatton1249]

Looking great Elin, kind regards, Richard.

Beautiful job Elin. When you are into the last details of a project the smiles are just always there. Just a personal thing for me would be a red coach line along the upper body seam to match the redline tyres. If memory serves dark blue had light / sky blue lines but I think red would just set that superb side view up well.

[@RustyBeauties]

Jake will probably add that. I am not a fan.

[@BruceBoschek]

That is a very pretty car. Good job. Glad to see a video from you again, Elin!

[@RustyBeauties]

Thanks Bruce!

[@cutworm59]

I plan on putting 2 USB ports inside the ash tray. I did that on the Mustang.

[@RustyBeauties]

Oh, yeah! That is such a good idea! I never thought of it! Thanks Stevie!

[@bobrose7900]

Beautiful... well done!

[@Zincaloom]

Looks great. Tush tires were a great idea. I was worried about the gaps. Perfect now. 👍

[@RustyBeauties]

Yeah, The car looks great with them!

[@berndb.5097]

[@RustyBeauties]

[@roundtailrestoration]

Sharp looking car, Elin. Great job!

[@RustyBeauties]

Thanks Chris!

[@seanfay2670]

Congratulations Elin. She looks superb.

[@RustyBeauties]

Thanks Sean

[@RufusT9]

Does it need some coachlines? Fine looking car and thanks for taking us along on your journey

[@RustyBeauties]

Yeah, maybe. I will let Jake decide on that.

[@markrobinson8539]

My white TR6 had red factory hand drawn coach lines on it - looked very smart

[@ralphcap2476]

Looking good with the tires good stance now

[@RustyBeauties]

You see. Finally we are both happy :) Thanks for being with me on that case!

[@A3203503]
