Looks like a Scrambler because of the higher exhaust pipe, but not sure if they ever came with that carb setup.

Yes I think you are right.

From the pipes, it's probably a TR6C

Obviously from the pre-Unit days and the motor looks late 50ish/early 60ish.

I'm going to guess 1961 TR6C. :uk:

EDIT: Actually C had the dual scrambler pipes didn't it? The pic is cut off but this one has the 2 into one exhaust so it's not a C.
