Hi all;
I've gone down the LED rabbit hole on my 1976 TR6. I intend to install 2 indicator lights for the turn signal in the dash. I'm looking for wiring ideas. It should be pretty simple, but it's been a while since I've worked in DC circuits. Planning to change both the hazard and turn...
I recently got my 1972 TR6 back after a years long restoration. The shop that did the paint and interior lost the seat belts and glued the wool carpets over the lower anchor points (each side of the seats). I do not want to go and tear out the carpet. So can anyone provide sketches or photos of...
Selling our beautiful 1966 Tr4A convertible. This has been in our family for over 26 years now. It's in excellent condition for a 1966. Runs and drives great. Very solid body and frame. The engine is from a Tr6. We recently had some work done, including, new battery, clutch master cylinder and...
My J-Type overdrive has been playing around recently. When the gearbox was cold everything would be fine, the overdrive functioned correctly and there was no hesitation either engaging or disengaging. However, after 10-15 minutes, disengaging would be hesitant and would sometimes re-engage...
Hello LBC Friends,
I picked up an aluminum fuel cap from a club member for my Austin-Healey 3000 a couple of years ago, but it is way too large to go on a big Healey, nearly double the size of the original cap; the proportions are all wrong. He had said it was from a Triumph TR 250.
I'd like...
Took delivery of my 1976 TR6 last week. Runs great but I could not get comfortable with how much higher the gas pedal is above the brake. Question for the group, is this normal? If not, is it adjustable?
Hi all, I'm still working through a light engine rebuild and had the valve/rocker cover off yesterday. I noticed there was a lot of sludge collected at one end of the engine. My first though is that this engine has just sat for 20+ years and it's probably just old oil. But wanted to gut-check...
Hello All, I'm Alexis.
TLDR: I found a great 76 TR6 and am restoring it.
I've always had a fondness for older cars. My dad restored a Comet, a friend built old VW's and I tried my hand as a teen at restoring a 58 & 64 VW Bug. Didn't get very far because I was young and had no real resources...
I have a 1970 TR6 with a bad ammeter. While looking into repair/replacement of the old meter, I tried to temporarily bypass it so I could drive the car. Based on the amount of sparks, I still have current flowing through some of this wiring even with the ignition turned "OFF". Any hints on...

Hello I am a new member, I was directed to the form by a friend. I have recently purchased a TR6 that hasn’t moved or started it the last 25 years. Everything under the hood held up nicely and doesn’t seem to have any visual issues with wiring, I would like advice on what to change besides all...
