Entry-level: ’72 Triumph TR6

1972 Triumph TR6

There are a gazillion British sports cars available out there so why would we pick this one? Well, it is original and cheap plus it has a bunch of recent money spent on it in the right places. It still sports its Saffron Yellow paint applied at the factory and although it has some blemishes, I am sure they won’t detract from enjoying this one. The seller states it is accident and rust free and everything is functioning as it should. The odometer shows 61,000 miles and is believed to be original too. Read More

Italian Suit: ’60 (Triumph) Italia 2000GT

Italia 2000GT

The Italia 2000 GT was produced over the period 1959 to 1963. Produced is a relative term when it comes to Italias, since something less than 300 were ever made. Unique marketing efforts in the U.S. included each original owner having to sign a contract that included among its clauses the fact that no body panels or trim pieces were available as spares! It wasn’t inexpensive having a $5000 list price, which was close to an E-type Jag or Corvette. Read More

Fly in, drive home: ’76 Triumph TR-6

Triumph TR-6

In its lifespan, over 86,000 Triumph TR-6s were exported. Not bad for a British sports car. The TR-6 styling is much like the TR-4/TR-250. Michelotti was hired to give it a face and tail lift and their work has been universally admired. The Kamm-tail Michelotti used was a popular design trend in the ’70s. There are tons of TR-6s available everyday in the marketplace, so why did this one catch our eye? Read More

Another nice one: ’59 Triumph TR-3A

Triumph TR-3A

We like to mix things up here at Mint but when you find another really nice car similar to one recently posted, you have to you have to make a call. So when we reviewed this TR-3 sent in by Mike M., we were impressed. This one is a fine example of a 1959 Triumph TR3A with factory “overdrive” and wire wheels (# TS61141LO).  Read More

All in the family: ’63 Triumph TR4

Triumph TR4

We had a TR4A a few weeks ago so we can briefly re-tell the story of the TR4. The folks at Standard Triumph had one mission for the engineers embarking on designing the replacement for the TR-3 – maintain the “hairy chested” image of the TR-3. The project code-name was Zest. Why car companies need code names I’ll never know. Perhaps a carry over from the war? They asked Italian design house, Michelotti, to come up with a handsome new body and they did a fine job.
