These questions are always tough to answer, despite the best worded descriptions
of the car. But I think the GT6 is probably the best remaining Triumph
bargain,
because, though the top don't drop, when they are properly tuned, they are a
blast to drive. I prefer mine over my TR6, because of the GT's cornering-to-
power combination qualities. But that's not what you asked.
If all the essentials are in good condition, but the interior
needs attention, I'd guess $2500 is a good starting price. If this car were
a GT6+, add $500.
