We present the first high-dispersion lUE short-wavelength (SWP) spectrum of NGC 6751 (029.2 -05.9) from which log Nc = 3.9±0.05 cm-3, terminal wind velocity v∞ = 2450±150 km s-1, and a maximum mass-loss rate of Mṡ(max) 7.9 × 10-8 Msun yr-1 are determined. Emission-line fluxes from low-dispersion spectra for the epochs 1981 and 1994 are presented which suggest some changes may have occurred. The C III] λλ1907, 1909 doublet displays an unusual triple-peaked profile in the high-resolution spectrum. The IUE range is characterized by a rich stellar spectrum of carbon lines at various stages of ionization and few nebular lines.
