I have been on the fence as whether to sell this car or not for a long time, and I guess that its now time to let it go. I may ramble in this ad.
1973 Triumph GT6 MK3
2.0L S6 Original Engine w/ 52,900 miles
2x Original ZS 150CD or CDSE carbs(I forget) that are synchronized and don't leak.
4sp. Non-OD transmission, Original
Original Wheels, amateur repaint when bored last year.
Very little rust, but here is where it is:
Bottom of driver and passenger rocker panels.
Bottom at weld of Passenger Rear Quarter Panel.
Both Front Valences, one was bondoed, would replace both as bondo is a stupid thing to do on a part like that.
Now the good:
The hood is rustless, the doors are great, and there are only a few dings on the car. The car has very presentable paint, but because of the bodywork that needs to be done, it's pointless to not repaint the car. The car was repainted in the 1980's by the previous owner, and is a very close match to the original color. The engine does NOT burn or leak ANY oil. Currently, the gearbox leaks at the transmission to driveshaft seal.
More stuff:
The handbrake sticks, and needs to be worked on so it is functional. The power booster is untested, as it was disconnected when I bought the car, and I have no idea how to get it going. It needs an alignment and has one bent wheel. The chrome on the bumpers is ok, but I would get a rechrome if this were to be restored. The frame is straight and not rusted. The car was rustproofed sometime in the mid eighties, and everything underneath has great paint, and no evidence of any rust repair. The inside of the car has already been went through, and the floors have been wire brushed, reinforced on the welds with fiberglass, and repainted. The seat frames have been wire brushed, repainted, restuffed amateurly and the original good condition cloth seat covers were put back on. It has new carpet w/ rear deck mat. It needs new door panels, as the ones it has are cheap looking and were made quickly by me just to get the car on the road. The car is mostly complete (Minus the armrest, pads that go next to it, and the little cover that goes over the pads, along with the spare tire.).
This is sad to sell, but I am a college student, and my parents told me I can't keep it in the garage when I move out.
Make an Offer and we'll see how it goes. PM me, or call (616)401-2713, anytime up until 2:00A.M. EST.
