1972 Nut & bolt restored beautiful Triumph GT6 For Sale
An excellent example of the classic sporting coupe, with a striking Saffron Yellow finish and a re-trimmed interior.
It is powered by the 2. 0-litre OHV straight-six, coupled to a four-speed synchromesh manual transmission with overdrive.
In 2013 to 2017, it underwent a comprehensive restoration and re-trim, and now presents in very good order.
EQUIPMENT AND FEATURES
For the GT6 MkIII model, the body shell was revised to match the design of the Spitfire Mk IV, with alterations including a new cut-off rear end, recessed door handles and a smoother front quarter.
This example features resprayed Saffron Yellow paintwork, re-trimmed black vinyl upholstery with red piping and the desirable sunroof.
It has been upgraded with a brake servo, electronic ignition, stainless steel exhaust, silicone radiator hoses, uprated brakes, a rocker feed oil kit, poly bushes and a modified rear shock absorber bracket, which now allows the upper mounting to be bolted directly to the chassis for improved handling.
The cylinder head has been modified to run on unleaded fuel.
A re-printed owner’s manual will be included, along with a parts guide, a wheel brace, a jack, two ignition keys, two door keys, two rear hatch keys and one fuel filler cap key.
CONDITION
Most of the body panels were replaced during the restoration, though no damage has been sustained.
Its Saffron Yellow paintwork is in excellent condition, as you would expect given the recent refurbishment.
The black vinyl upholstery is in great shape, with no considerable wear.
A few light scratches can be seen on the handbrake lever, and the dial surrounds are slightly scuffed.
There is some tarnishing and pitting on the quarter light window chrome, and that the ignition key needs to be turned slowly to operate correctly.
The most recent MOT test was on 4 October 2018 at 41, 403 miles, which was a clean pass with no advisories or defects. It is exempt from mandatory annual testing on the basis of age.
SERVICE HISTORY
The engine oil and filter were changed in November 2020.
In Dec 2013 to 2017, it underwent a body-off restoration at Douglas Motor Services in Northampton, which included the fitment of a brake servo, refurbished suspension, and a new starter motor.
The car also received the re-trim in 2017, and prior to this in 2015, the driveshafts was renewed with the correct Rotoflex couplings and bolts.
In 2013 the body shell and chassis were professionally cleaned and sandblasted to start the restoration.
