Triumph TR6

[gbtr6]

Am working on my TR6. I have 1:1 of this and want to do a replica. Got a 1/18 die cast and am changing it to look like mine. Some progress. 
Color is Mimosa Yellow, interior is Chestnut. Have to figure out the wheels and tires and the Union Jack by the tail lights.

Sweet ride, I worked at a Triumph  dealer back in the 70's and serviced in these cars when they were new.. Really should be a 1/24th plastic kit produced.

Really nice 1:1 you have in the picture!

Kit is looking pretty kewl and your 1:1 is really sweet.

Thanks guys. I do enjoy the 1:1. That's my son driving with his fiancés boy. I've had that car since '77, and my son will inherit it.

Why in the world a 1/24-1/25 kit is not offered!

IMO, this segment is overlooked. We need TR4 AND TR250 added to the mix. So many cars like this on my street back ago.

Good luck with your 6.

Thanks Robert. I agree. I know a guy that is going to do a TR4 in 1/24th, easy to do a TR250 off that. I've only seen 6's in 1/43 and 1/18.

Glad you decided to do a WIP thread on this one. Fine looking 1:1. As I mentioned earlier, and clearly others are in agreement, a shame no TR4 or TR6 has been kitted in 1/24. Ditto the GT6 (and no, that Lindberg mess does not count).

[gbtr6]

If 1/43 is your thing, there are some available. They are typically white metal and pretty decent.

Not much new on this one. Got the interior painted.
