About the project
One car, two eras
This site follows the rebuild of a 1974 Triumph TR6 — a proper 1970s British roadster, with the looks, the straight-six sound, and every bit of the age you'd expect.
(This page is example text — Rob's real story of the car goes here: where it came from, what state it arrived in, and why this car.)
Day one. It gets better from here.
Keeping the classic
- The body lines, chrome and badging stay exactly as Triumph drew them
- The wooden dash and original interior character are restored, not replaced
- The straight-six stays — rebuilt, not swapped
- Anything removed is kept, and every change is reversible
Making it modern
- Brakes that stop like it's this century
- Electrics that work every single time
- Electronic fuel injection for cold starts and drivability
- Discreet conveniences — charging, better lighting — hidden in plain sight
Why a website and not just Facebook? Because the interesting part of a restoration isn't the finished photo — it's the problem behind each one and how it got solved. This site keeps the full story in one place: for friends following along, and for the specialists working on the car who need to see exactly what's been done.
