Tom,
While not a "step by step" guide, the Practical Classics' "Triumph TR6
Restorer", distributed in the US by Motorbooks International is very
useful.
Item # 117611AE $24.95 Phone 1-800-826-6600 visa,mc,ae,dc
Contrary to almost everyone on this list, I feel the Haynes manual is a
more useful guide for a step by step teardown and restoration. I can't
find the Haynes manual anywhere, so surely this fine company would not
object to one of us copying the manual and distributing it to those in
need.
Good Luck,
Jim Davis
