Description

Merit Cars presents this charming 1971 Triumph GT6 MKIII. Finished in British Racing Green with a tan interior and equipped with the desirable four-speed manual transmission, this GT6 is a very enjoyable driver that benefits from nearly five decades of ownership by a dedicated enthusiast. The previous owner purchased the car approximately 49 years ago and during his stewardship restored the car twice and rebuilt the engine once. The result is a GT6 that remains a very usable and enjoyable classic sports coupe. The car presents well overall. The British Racing Green paint shows nicely and gives the car excellent curb appeal. The tan interior has been refurbished over the years with practical improvements and adaptations that reflect the owner's desire to drive and enjoy the car rather than simply display it. Mechanically, the car performs very well. The inline six-cylinder engine starts easily, runs smoothly and delivers strong performance. The four-speed transmission shifts properly and the brakes are functioning well. This is a GT6 that feels eager to be driven. The spare tire compartment is exceptionally clean. The underside presents well with a solid frame and replacement floors. The car also comes with a spare wheel and an extensive collection of extra parts accumulated during long-term ownership. With its attractive color combination, strong mechanical condition and nearly half-century ownership history, this GT6 represents an excellent opportunity to acquire one of Triumph's most distinctive and enjoyable sporting coupes.
