Hello from colorful Colorado... I am Patrick and I am the 2nd owner of a 1973 Triumph TR-6. I bought the car in 1978 from a high school best friend.
Somehow, we have remained close friends and he is an excellent mechanic (big reason....just kidding)! My TR is not stock and has many upgrades.
It is Sapphire blue with Powder Blue interior. Panasport wheels, front and rear sway bars, polyurethane bushings, Koni front shocks and larger bore
lever shocks on the rear. Italian Weber 40 DCOE triple carbs, digital Fuel pump, roller rockers, electronic ignition, oil cooler, aluminum radiator and shroud, split header with Ansa dual exhaust, battery cutoff switch in dash (great anti theft device). It is a 4 speed with J type overdrive. Soon to be upgrades include an
electric cooling fan and halogen headlights. I have personally done all work and maintenance on this car except body and paint. Oh, and best of all....it
has a Mach One gas cap (fits lower and looks better and can't be stolen)!
 
Hello Patrick

Welcome to the forum.

The Triumph section is very active so be sure to post information on your TR6 mods there.

Post some photos of your TR6.

Welcome Pat! I went through my high school years in Aurora, so I'm sort of a fellow Coloradan (sp). My Daughter in Law is from La Junta, which is a bit closer to you I think.
 
WOW Basil! Small world. Been to La Junta many times but that is flat land with straight roads. My TR loves tight mountain roads.
I hope to take it to Telluride this fall for the Cars & Colors Concours and car show.
