Hello all,

    Just for info:  My 74 1/2 TR-6 (CF28973, built 4 Nov 1974 according to
BMHIT) has overdrive, has the high mounted bumpers (front & back), rubber
overriders, TRIUMPH nameplate mounted below the rear bumper, no emblem mounted
above right taillight, rear license-plate lights mounted above plate (below
trunk latch), front turn signals mounted to the bottom of the bumper with
amber/white lenses (only the '76 model TR-6's had all-amber front turn-signal
lenses).

Question.  How can you tell a 74 1/2 from a '75 model TR-6?  The most obvious
change was the addition of a air pump.  Not sure how to tell them apart if the
hood(bonnet) is not up!
