Last night we added another pretty car to the Triumph Photo Gallery.

Check out "Don Watson's 1974 TR-6 with 1992 Ford 5.0 H.O. V8 Engine" from this link: http://www.britishv8.org/Triumph/DonWatson.htm

Question for Don Watson

I would be interested in the conversion you did with the 240sx disk brakes in the rear of your TR6??

Thanks in advance,
Calvin

Calvin,

What can I do for you on the rear brake conversion?  By the way, is the picture by your name your project v8?

rear disc brake conversion, Nissan 240sx/Maxima rotors, 200sx/Maxima calipers, custom CNC steel brackets.

I may have extra brackets to unload as it was less to order in quantity.

I may also be able to share CAD to make the brackets.

I have extra brackets if you want to make the conversion!

I have listed the rear disc brake brackets for sale in the Classified!

Don, I'd be very pleased if you'd take these excellent photos and turn them into an article for the Spring issue of our Newsletter!

Curtis,

I'm not much of a writer, but I'll send my stuff your way and you be the judge. Please feel free to edit, modify, correct,etc.
Thank you for all you do for BritishV8.  Have a place to GO TO is important for those who wake up and realize "I could of had a V8!"
