The cars finally arrive at the new shop, as BaulyCars continues to set up a Classic Car Restoration shop here in Dubai.

With delivery of the cars I get a first look under the (stuck) bonnet of the TR4A to see how bad the rust is and find some goodies in the (also stuck!) boot. A wheel change removes the crumbled tyres to get it rolling.

And then a look at a 3rd car…!

New TR6 Chassis. #tr6 #triumphtr6 #classiccars #chassis #automotive

Our design of an all new chassis for the TR6 is under development and is set to come to life in 2024.

Our strict brief is to preserve the original bodyshell as far as possible, provide dramatically higher torsional stiffness, revisions to suspension geometry, and reset the original car’s relationship between ride height, suspension travel and ground clearance. The chassis will also offer vastly improved seatbelt security and a level of crash protection.

Comprising an all new tubular steel spaceframe, replacing the original planar frame in its entirety, with the bodyshell to be preserved as much as possible, ‘slotting’ the bodyshell ‘inside’ of the new chassis.

Along with greater stiffness, the chassis design aims to address suspension compromises of the original (particularly for a car with a lowered ride height). The front will employ an all-new double wishbone arrangement with a select modern damper/spring unit. The rear will provide direct chassis support of the rear spring/damper, with either a trailing arm or double wishbone subject to packaging.

We are designing-in engine and gearbox placement primarily of course for the beloved original engine and gearbox, but also for select engine/gearbox configurations such as the 4-cyl shown in the render, but choice V8 packages will also be assessed for fitment – and what better way to keep the TR`s alive for future generations than a chassis that can also accommodate an altogether more silent drivetrain….

Design development continues, defining the car’s axle vs chassis setting out, wheel/tyre geometries, bodyshell geometry and of course the chassis elements, before we move to the next stage of chassis structural analysis and first prototyping on our TR6.

Stiffness, handling, ride comfort, geometry, set-up, wheel/brake packaging, driver safety, drivetrain possibilities – a new level of performance for the TR6.
