1972 Triumph TR6 Navigation
This 1972 Triumph TR6 Roadster was offered for sale at the 2007 Christies auction of 'Exceptional Motor Cars at the Monterey Jet Center.' It is yellow with a brown leather interior and a black top. Power is from a six-cylinder engine with pushrod overhead valves and two Stromberg carburetors. The 106 horsepower is sent to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual gearbox. There are hydraulically operated discs in the front and drums in the rear.

The TR6 was the final iteration of a long line of open two-seater cars that were sold at a very reasonable price. The TR6 has a redesigned Kamm-type tail, flatter hood, additional front overhang, and a center badge.

This example has been restored to its original specification. Most of its history has been lost to time, but it is believed to have spent its very early life in Canada. It has an owner repaint, a newer convertible top and tonneau cover, and period-correct tires. It was estimated to sell for $20,000 - $25,000. At the auction, it failed to find an interested buyer willing to satisfy the vehicle's reserve.
