There are lots of us TR guys on the list.  A subset of us are known as
the Friends of Triumph.  Start asking questions and we'll give you lots
of support.  Most vintage groups will take your TR4 although its too bad
that it's not a solid axle car since they will likely put you in a group
with somewhat more modern technology in the rest of the car.

Some groups consider 72 to be the cutoff date and would theoretically
invalidate your TR6.  However I suspect that is negotiable in most
groups since the changes from 72 to 73 were not significant from any
performance perspective.

Like I said, ask a question.
