I always thought the TR6 needs to be about 6 - 8 inches (15 - 20cm) wider. Then fitting an American V8 would be a cinch.<br></div><div><br></div><div class="ydpe29dc70bsignature"><div style="color: black; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; font-stretch: normal; font-size: 12pt; line-height: normal; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size-adjust: none;"><div style="color: black; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; font-stretch: normal; font-size: 12pt; line-height: normal; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size-adjust: none;"><div><font size="4">Dave <br></font></div><div><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:sans-serif;color:black;"><br></span></div><br></div></div></div></div>

Anybody who goes through that effort and does a good job should be admired. Didn’t Ratco start with a TR6 that was widened about 6”? I know that we had a club member that also widened his TR6. There are a lot of highly modified/altered LBC’s that were rescued from junk yards and they wouldn’t be around if the owner’s didn’t have an enthusiastic vision. I like it!</span></p><p class="ydp8a46ff3cyiv9475912132MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D;"> </span></p><p class="ydp8a46ff3cyiv9475912132MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D;">Alex Thomson</span></p><p class="ydp8a46ff3cyiv9475912132MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D;">’73 TR6</span></p><p class="ydp8a46ff3cyiv9475912132MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D;">Connecticut Triumph Register</span></p><p class="ydp8a46ff3cyiv9475912132MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D;"> </span></p><div id="ydp8a46ff3cyiv9475912132yqt59249" class="ydp8a46ff3cyiv9475912132yqt2667248901"><div><div style="border-color: rgb(181, 196, 223) currentcolor currentcolor; border-style: solid none none; border-width: 1pt medium medium; padding: 3pt 0in 0in;"><p class="ydp8a46ff3cyiv9475912132MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-size:10.0pt;">From:</span></b><span style="font-size:10.0pt;"> Triumphs [mailto:triumphs-bounces@autox.team.net] <b>On Behalf Of </b>dave northrup<br clear="none"><b>Sent:</b> Wednesday, July 12, 2023 7:15 PM<br clear="none"><b>To:</b> triumphs@autox.team.net<br clear="none"><b>Subject:</b> [TR] Extended Wheelbase 1970 Triumph TR6</span></p></div></div><p class="ydp8a46ff3cyiv9475912132MsoNormal"> </p><p class="ydp8a46ff3cyiv9475912132MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:New;">Cool or ghastly? </span></p></div><div><div><div id="ydp8a46ff3cyiv9475912132yqt99443" class="ydp8a46ff3cyiv9475912132yqt2667248901"><p class="ydp8a46ff3cyiv9475912132MsoNormal"> </p><p class="ydp8a46ff3cyiv9475912132MsoNormal"><a shape="rect" href="https://washingtondc.craigslist.org/mld/ctd/d/chevy-chase-1970-triumph-tr-22-custom/7640940265.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">https://washingtondc.craigslist.org/mld/ctd/d/chevy-chase-1970-triumph-tr-22-custom/7640940265.html</a></p></div><p class="ydp8a46ff3cyiv9475912132MsoNormal"> </p><p class="ydp8a46ff3cyiv9475912132MsoNormal"> </p></div></div></div></div></div><div class="ydp8a46ff3cyqt2667248901" id="ydp8a46ff3cyqt40207">** <a shape="rect" href="mailto:triumphs@autox.team.net" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">triumphs@autox.team.net</a> **<br clear="none"><br clear="none">Donate: <a shape="rect" href="http://www.team.net/donate.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://www.team.net/donate.html</a><br clear="none">Archive: <a shape="rect" href="http://www.team.net/pipermail/triumphs" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://www.team.net/pipermail/triumphs</a> <a shape="rect" href="http://www.team.net/archive" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://www.team.net/archive</a><br clear="none"><br clear="none">Unsubscribe/Manage: <a shape="rect" href="http://autox.team.net/mailman/options/triumphs/dave1massey@cs.com" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://autox.team.net/mailman/options/triumphs/dave1massey@cs.com</a><br clear="none"></div></div>
