Triumph TR6: according to some, the last of the true British sports cars... 

For many years I searched for a desirable example.  Sure, TR6's are available but upon close inspection they usually are eaten up by rust.  My goal was to find a car with a sound body and frame.  Finally in the Summer of 2003 I found what I was looking for.

This TR6 has undergone a full frame-off restoration.  Along the way, some improvements have been made.  This website lists the great majority of these improvements.  As you read, you will find many interesting surprises!  The whole point of building this car was to make it reliable (very tall order for a British sports car) and very fast. 

The restoration took approximately 3 years to complete.  Countless hours have been spent fabricating bespoke items and improving the original car.  The results have been quite impressive.

Please, check out my car...  If you have any comments or questions, please send them to me in an email to info@bowtie6.com.  I will try to answer any questions and just would like to hear from you.  Enjoy!
