Charles Runyan (TRF) owned both a TR5 and a PI TR6; he probably still
has both of them. The TR5 is at the top of my personal list of
"desireable Triumphs"...after my TR2, of course.        ;-)

About 12 or so years ago I went to see a 1974 RHD PI TR-6
that an English couple here in the USA on a 2 year business
assignment had brought into the states.  The body was rough, but
complete.  The car was passed through US customs because it
was supposed to be exported when the couple left.  The couple
stayed on and the car was registered in NY state.  I belive it
was sold to someone on Long Island.  The asking price
at the time was $3500.

The car was that horible magenta color.

Other than that one, there's probably only a handful of any
similar cars here.  Likewise, there are a few non-US
TR-5s in the US, but those I've seen have all been LHD.
