[@yankee2yankee216]

I love the old sports cars. I dreamt about them for decades… and then, years later, I took the plunge, I bought a Miata, a black on black 1994 NA, with 40K on the clock and cranks for the windows. I LOVED that car! I remember when I bought it, I was in a particularly good mood for at least 6 mos.! And that love affair lasted 11 years. That was in SoCal. Back in New England, I WAS missing the sports car I always wanted to drive here, so I picked up a ‘97 M-Edition again with 40K. She now has 55 and I’m livin’ the life! I would love a TR or MG, but the Miata is both, better. I consider myself lucky to be able to have a few of my favorite cars.

[@blackwingvisuals5017]

The closest I ever got to this was Dolomite 1500 with a Sprint Badge on the back it used to skip at the back end going into corners!!! It woke you up real quick!!

[@mattkinsella9856]

What a fantastic car! Can't believe more people haven't done more restomod projects with a TR6, because it's such a cool looking car with bags of space in the engine bay. The look on his face when he gave it some beans, you can tell it's really on the edge with all that power in such a small package. His look is not just of fear but more like "What am I doing? This thing might kill us both!!" 🤣🤣

My Dad had a few of these, last one was a 1976 150bhp with the dreaded Lucas fuel injection. Had it really nicely restored and then made a massive loss selling it after very little use, he still kicks himself cus shortly after the value on them went through the roof! Lovely old car, the 2.5 6 banger sounded mint to me as a teenager.

[@Markdmarque]

Lucas injection system was ok.I had one and never had a problem other than it had to have a bosch fuel pump

[@glenmaragon5201]

I had one as my first car (DAO 639K), beautiful when it went but it spent more time at the garage than on the road having either the fuel pump or metering unit (whatever that is) changed.

[@musicauthority7828]

WOW that's an incredible TR6 that has to be the cleanest most professional swaps I believe I've ever seen. with all the high quality bits and pieces though out the car. there is definitely plenty of redundancy built into it with all the AN fittings and steel braided hoses. I really like the current owners philosophy with the car his saying that they wanted to get the most out of that they could. but because it's an old car a person has to have a great deal of respect for it. and how he explained every detail about the car, even though some people might find that to be too much information for a video. and how he seemed low key yet very allert and careful. and that the interviewer was almost beside himself so excited about this car, though the whole video. and how he explained how the previous owner was such a stickler about even the finest details, like his use of the ultra high quality and completely functional aircraft switches, and controls, gauges, those tiny details can mean the difference between a day of happy motoring. and a day where your enjoyment is cut short due to something as simple as a switch failure. and I also liked his choice of parts and components such as the T5 transmission. I had thoughts about finding a TR6 chassis or possibly an MGB chassis. and putting a massaged 2.8L on up to 4.0 L V6 in one, and match up which ever two would work out depending on parts availability, but haven't done it. I would have to get freed up from some other projects first. My father worked with a guy that put a 302c.i. 5.0 L V8 in a TR6. I know he had to build a special hood for it that was raised by two inches, and I know he was driving it around. but I haven't seen him in while because he's lives twenty away. and I haven't had to venture over there in a while. I will go visit him and see if he still has the car and see how it's doing.

[@mikerichards9196]

Don't know why this has taken so long to come up in my suggestions, but better late than never! The TR's straight six is one of the best sounding engines, ever, but that turbo and bov is seriously addictive 😂

[@paulrevere47]

The TR6's were in competition with the 240Z back in the day. They were considered pretty car cool with the then innovative IRS, independent rear suspension which gave the Z and TR6 extra corner fun. Radials were fairly new then too which added to the need for insurance of a better grade.

[@skxj]

Yes, radials were a fairly new thing. I hadn't turned 16 yet as I remember riding my bicycle to his place to talk to him so this was built before '83. It was that pale yellow colour from new but later a red then a burgundy metallic. It sounded unreal too not a lot of exhaust pipe.

[@racketman2u]

The problem is that the trailing arm design of the Triumph was prone to camber changes, making the cars very twitchy at the limit and in fact inferior to a good live axle. The 240Z's macpherson strut design (like the Lotus) was vastly superior, as the car magazine road tests of the day attested.

[@paulrevere47]

@@racketman2u I used to know that, thanks for the refresher...the 'twitchy' sticks as I had a 66 Healey 3000 and did find the Z-car more of mechanical envy, though my A-H sits dear to my Heart, dashboard overdrive, honey exhaust tone at 3kr's n all.

[@carlosoruna7174]

both rusted , tr6 had the lucas curse, prefer the 240z.

[@azcerbic]

Interesting. My BFF (RIP) had a used 72 240z when I had my TR6. He never got it running right for long (fuel pump, overheating & stock carb problems). We never raced, just wrenched together. He moved on to Saab's. Good times. We knew crap-all about mechanics & learned together on these cars. Early/most Saab turbo's also electrical nightmares imho. + FWD.

[@tomsmith2209]

Love the TR6. The workmanship on this one is fantastic.

[@tomnekuda3818]

The engine reminds me of the Cosworth Vega I owned in the 70's and 80's. I removed Chevrolet's misbegotten fuel injection and fitted it with 42 DCOE side-draft Webers and then I loved it. Jetting was a snap with carbs I could pull the entire jet stack out and make changes in less than 5 minutes if I was motivated. What a difference Webers make! They are free-flowing and infinitely adjustable as I could slide in different size chokes all day if I wanted. Very nice little car.......I should never have sold it. All in all, this is a sweet ride and all the personal touches are well done and logical in their functionality.......great job! By the way, I'm a Yank.......what language are these chaps speaking?

[@05gtdriver]

With that much power, a locking diff would probably be more beneficial for keeping it in a straight line since it seems to be a recreational, weekend type of car. Beautiful TR-6, I always wanted one, but my dad said it was expensive to maintain British crap and that I'd spend more time working on it than driving it LOL. I ended up with a Capri 2600 V6(I live in California) in 1982 and actually raced a fellow in an early TR-6(early U.S. TR-6 were much faster than the later smog engine ones). We went neck and neck until about 85mph when I pulled away a bit(maybe a half a car), so I didn't regret getting the Capri over the TR-6, but I would still love to have one, and my long gone Capri as well! This TR-6 is purely brilliant!

[@RasheedKhan-he6xx]

Your dad was right. 😏

[@oldmod2866]

As the owner of a TR4 for the last 50 years i wonder how you keep it in a straight line. What an amazing car and a braver driver than me!

[@ibana8449]

Did you see the one on Ebay recently, with a LS3 V8 engine ? Very stock looking

[@SteveInskip]

The IRS made a huge difference (I note you said TR4 and not 4A), but the TR6 had a tendency to snap and step out at the back if you put too much throttle out of a tight bend or turning onto a road in anything other than bone dry conditions. Personally, for the road, generally the original 150bhp is more than enough on this chassis no matter what tyres/shocks you’ve got on it. Of course nowadays I doubt these get taken out much other than on sunny days; mine was everyday transport. I had a TR6 for about 20 years and a TR7 for 2 years. The 7 pissed all over the 6 in terms of handling although never looked as good and was rubbish if you’d got a girlfriend and no accommodation of your own! 😈😉😉

[@roybatty2030]

Engine looking for a chassis… handling was always crap, swapped mine for a Lancia Fulvia 1600HF, never looked back

[@andrewsproson1410]

Great to see this old girl on the road even though it’s got a 4 cylinder engine.Good to see the owner respect it and he talked good sense too.I always fancied building a TR6 on a lighter stronger chassis with coil overs , poly bushes etc but I would have to keep the straight 6.Would need to slim down to fit in one now.

[@georgesheffield1580]

What's wrong w/a 4 cyl engine ? That's what is in the Porsche 919 EVO ( a V4 )

[@martyn_g]

It’s a Cosworth. That’s all that needs to be said.

[@martyn_g]

Poly bushes can crack the mounts. They transmit shock. I used to be a suspension tech - they have their place on the racetrack, but I’d never fit them to a road car.

[@howardmckenna]

I've always loved the TR6 for it's tight compact but handsome dimensions. This adds *sooo* much more. What a beast.

[@mikeilkenhons8896]

Awesome machine… I ordered a TR-250 in 1968. The dealer called me back to inform me it was no longer available. But if I wanted “basically the same car” with that 6 cylinder they had a first import of the TR-6. It was amazing, Pimento Red with Black interior, wire wheels…but no O/D… only regret. It could keep,up with the Healy 3000 up to 120… really miss that car.

[@mikejohnson5900]

I've always loved the look of the later model TR-6s! Looked at one with a Ford V-8 in it a few years ago, it was done well and was really clean. Alas, it is a weekend car and I needed a daily driver. It was hard to walk away from that one.

[@Ogsonofgroo]

Awesome car and a great ride-along! Always liked the TR's, all of them, but there were a few 6's around TO that regularly stomped the back roads just as they were. Like any good car, whilst treating you well, will become a part of you, drive carefully and do not become a part of it. :P Beautiful vicarious show, kudos and thanks from Canada!

[@toby000000]

[@colinsmith7385]

Thanks Adam, really enjoyed that one, nice to see something older featured.

[@azcerbic]

Brilliant build! Kinda agree that it's no longer a TR6, especially w/a turbo. TR6 was happiest @ 2.5-4k rpm imho & the exhaust note was magnificient! Then again I'd planned to install a '79 Chevy 400ci engine in my mint '72 BRG TR6 (measured & it fit) when much younger. Totalled mine sadly 2 weeks before planned swap when a driver ran a Stop sign in front of me 2 weeks b4 date of swap 😭. I already had dual side draft Webers, yellow Koni shocks & glass pack dual slash tip exhaust & redone interior w/highback seats (neck/head protection) . Stock engine w/Solex's & 0 mods made the stock 150hp on the dyno when reg'd @ 9yo when I got it. Had that same hardtop. Never used it in 3 years. Rare now. Loved that car! Sadly accident bent the frame so Ins totalled it. Even had same bumper deletes 👍. Seriously no roll bar? Real fuel cell? Suspension sorted? TR6's handled well w/a bit of care & sorting. Personally don't like the Gadgetman interior/shifter. Interior makes it look 1/2 finished. Mildly like this vid. Black paint? & that tailpipe should be a TR6 crime. I can't imagine a harder clutch pedal than stock. Definitely On/Off on mine. Went thru 5.5 clutches (crooked mechanic 1x), 3 trannys in 3 years (said I was young 😆). Engine was bulletproof. I drifted mine occasionally (bit of rain helped 😉) driving up the hill home as there were several perfect drift corners. Definitely not a sleeper. More an Outlaw or Resto-mod. & where's the ubitiqous luggage rack? 😀 Cheers to his brother for building & paying the bills! Kudos for not having Insta! Yes I'm still looking for a non-OD 69-71 5 speed. Now want to install an e30 6, 240Z 6 or go monster Nissan twin turbo. The engine bay is massive vs today's cars. Lucas elec/wiring had killed my OD b4 I bought mine. 70-100kmh in 4th & an open road, my 6 was happiest. Not a race car. Definitely a tourer. Interesting build that sent me down happy memory lane. 👍

[@RedBud315]

My uncle had a later model(maybe '73) TR6 in Burgundy color and to this day I still think they have a beautiful design. This example is spectacular. I was a 2nd owner of the last year('73) 240Z that I spent 5 years doing total mechanical restoration and just before completing I had a garage fire and lost it and my mind. The profile height was about the same as this with the top of my fender being about half way up my thigh. I could do an oil change by sliding catch pan under the car and leaning over the fender to remove the drain plug and filter so I never had to crawl underneath. I had modified stock SU's(to prevent air leaks) and header and was putting out about 170-175 H.P. but, at 2260 lbs. full of fuel. I had al the parts to rebuild the head and port it to bring it up to about 220 H.P. when the fire happened. One time I ran side by side at 125 M.P.H. with a Fox Body Mustang 5.0 and I had to tell the guy I only had a 4 speed to humble him. Although I had been to 140 with wind at my back at another time.

Fantastic job - it looks too pretty for that absolutely wicked performance!

This is the best TR6 I've seen! Its a wonder more companies arent doing more with these burly little roadsters.

The interiour looks like an old fighter plane. Lovely.

I had a 72 150 bhp tr6 when I was 19 in the late 80s it was a fast car then so that car must be amazing to drive 😎😎

It’s nice when you hear the owners talking about the specs and knowing what’s what- not like innit bruv stage 3 🤣🤣🤣

Full credit to the co-owner / driver for not being a f*cktard and understanding that older cars needs care and respect, no matter how modded they are.
