Toyota 20R Power: 1972 Triumph TR6

This next car follows along with the theme of the MG Midget with Toyota power that we featured the other day…except that this one has the exhaust routing figured out. Classic British motoring style with reliable Japanese power…sounds like an MX-5 Miata without the reliable electrics. Find this 1972 Triumph TR6 with Toyota 20R power offered for $8500 in Santa Cruz, CA via craigslist.

This beautiful red TR6 is powered by a Toyota 20R with a Toyota 5 speed trans. it runs great but could use “A LITTLE LOVE”. I have a lot of extra parts as well that will come with it. Soft top, Hard top, new rear brake kit and rear suspension bushing kit. Front end bushings replaced. New front shocks, new 16″ wheels and tires. I have done a lot of work on this car but have lost my storage and would rather let someone else enjoy it than watch it deteriorate. Someone please save this gem. Any questions? Email me. Thanks.
