1973 Tr6 With Overdrive; Barn Find on 2040-cars

 1973 Triumph TR6 with Overdrive

Barn find that has been off the road since 1995. I bought this to restore, but I was recently was laid off, so I'm selling some toys.

The car has a new convertible top and top window seals.  Other than that, the only work that I have done so far is some cleaning. 

I have not attempted to start the engine, but it does turn over by hand.  The transmission shifts through the gears.

At a minimum, the hydraulics will need to be rebuilt and the carburetor/fuel system will need to be cleaned, plus expect some electrical system sorting.

The body and frame appear to be very rust free.  This is a southwest car (Texas and California).  It was also apparently treated with Ziebart rust proofing when new (see picture of label on the door).  The black that you see in the engine compartment and the trunk interior is not paint, it appears to be this Ziebart rust-proofing coating.

The car appears to have been repainted at some point and it looks like the hood was replaced at that time.  The current paint job is a 20 footer at best. 

Not shown in the pictures, but included with the car are a spare wheel (no tire), what appears to be the original jack, plus a few new parts that I purchased (oil filter, plug wires, points/condenser).

The speedometer shows approximately 15.5K miles, but accuracy of this number is unknown.

VIN is CF9913U0

I am also attempting to sell the car locally.

Car is "as is, where is".

Buyer is responsible for pick up in Austin, Tx or for arranging and paying for any shipping.
