According to both of Piggott's books, your car was built in '68. Remember he
uses day/month/year (as does most of the world) not Month /day/.year. Also
be careful to note that he breaks the TR6's down into Petrol Injection (CP
nnnn)and Carburetted (CC nnnn) sections. He shows the first CARB car in '69
as CC27384L built 2Jan'69.
Paint code 17 is Damson and Trim code 11 is Black. Cheers.
