If you're mechanically capable and your son is interested, go for it. <1K isn't bad if the body is in good shape. The dash should be sandable and resealable. Carpets for 2-400 depending on quality. Good poly rubber for about $150, new top for 2-300. I'm not a fan of the big rubber bumpers that it picked up in that era, but it may be possible to retrofit a better bumper setup.
I bought my own '70 Triumph Spitfire at 16 years old, saying if I could read it I could figure it out (in terms of fixing). Get the Bentley manual for the TR6 and go to town. Any pics?
