Let’s get straight to the point: we’ve never seen a TR6 this beautiful. In 2024, the car was appraised and received a Top-1 concours rating. Why? Allow us to explain.
There are restorations, and then there are rebirths. This 1974 Triumph TR6 was born in California but found its true calling in Friesland, where, between 2001 and 2003, Triumph expert Piet Mozes transformed it into a rolling masterpiece. The entire car was stripped down to the chassis, reinforced, powder-coated, and rebuilt with over €60,000 of love and engineering—resulting in something beyond "factory new." Since then, continuous investments have been made to further refine the car, making this example the ultimate evolution of what a TR6 can be.
Under the hood lies a beautifully built 2.5-liter inline-six engine with increased compression, a fast road camshaft, SU carburetors with K&N filters, and a stainless steel exhaust that sounds like a concert hall for petrolheads. The engine runs on modern fuel, cooled by an aluminum Wizard radiator, and is paired with a 4-speed manual gearbox with electric overdrive on third and fourth gears. The suspension has been completely upgraded with Revington components, AVO shock absorbers, ventilated front disc brakes, braided brake lines, a Nissan 350Z differential, an aluminum fuel tank, and a reinforced 1310 driveshaft. These upgrades are not just a list—they’re a love letter to driving pleasure. Built by and for those who truly understand what a rare gem this is.
Inside, you sit on leather BF Torino sport seats, gaze over a Moto-Lita steering wheel, and operate electric windows like it’s the most natural thing in the world—because in this car, it is. It drives like a modern sports car but breathes the charm of 1974. Since its rebirth, it has covered only around 7,000 miles, always cherished, never neglected. Appraised at €49,750, though that hardly reflects the true value of the hours, upgrades, and soul poured into it. A TR6 without compromise—for those who know what they have. Or want to have.
“It was a lot of car in the beginning, and it’s a lot more car today.”
