My '74 TR6 was built Jan 2nd, 1974. It has the rubber overiders just like
yours. Your car is correct. My commission number is CF16990U. So I guess our
cars were built within 900 cars of each other. Look at a 1975 TR6. It is VERY
different from yours. It has a raised bumper, different emission controls
like an air pump on the engine, and the Triumph badges are different. Write
me directly if you have any questions. Also if you don't have one, get a
Heritage certificate for your car. It can answer a lot of questions.
