Welcome to my automotive haven where passion meets craftsmanship!
My channel will try to specializes in custom restomod builds, and the current spotlight is on a Triumph TR6 undergoing a remarkable transformation. I'm going to try to integrate the mechanicals and electronics from a BMW 135 into the TR6. With a lot of luck and a bunch of dodgy skill, the body will undergo some pretty extensive customization.
I hope you will be inspired to embark on your own DIY adventures in the world of car restoration. Subscribe now for a front-row seat to the evolution of timeless classics.

Body and frame go together - Triumph TR6 +Episode BMW 135 = TR135 Restomod - Episode 8
I'm taking a 1968 Triumph TR6 and swapping the drivetrain from a 2009 BMW 135i into a custom chassis to create a TR135 Restomod.
This episode I get the body mounted temporality to the frame. I get some custom parts attached to the frame so everything is ready for mounting to the rotisserie.

I'm taking a 1968 Triumph TR6 and swapping the drivetrain from a 2009 BMW 135i into a custom chassis to create a TR135 Restomod. This episode I'm pulling apart the whole thing, building a rotisserie and getting the frame mounted to it.

Hornetic Installation in Pickup Truck
Thanks for visiting us! 🙌
Interesting and ambitious project. I’ll be following along! Cheers, Tush
I'd take the Ford and paint it.
Chevy all the way 👌🔥👍
I like the panther pink cuda.........js lol
That's actually an original paint job from what I'm told. 😮
Just found your channel and subscribed. It feels as if the gussets you're planning for the end of the floor rail will need to be pretty substantial. Interesting direction, though!
Thanks Charlie. Yeh, I was thinking the same thing, but I'm also planning on a roll cage that will help take some of the pressure off them. Not sure if I'll have to plate the sides of the rails and the gussets as well. Thanks for subscribing!
I just found this channel. Great stuff.
Thank you so much! 🙏
Absolutely gorgeous.

That is a stick color from factory. All original car.😮
Reventon is probably even rarer
It doesn't need to go fast when it has this presence
Love the colours
Aventador in batman colour
Murcielago
The 2nd choice
I think the owner said 750whp. That's as far as this motor will go.
$1.1M Diablo. Gated 6 speed, convertible.
Hi Howard. Looking good. Certainly going to be stronger than the origonal chassis. Steve.
For sure as long as my welding is good. I'm thinking that I'll weld the chassis to the body instead of having it removeable. Once I do all the custom stuff to it, I think it only makes sense to create a unibody.
100% agree no wonder this was put on my feed.
Shotgun!
Wow. Some work you have ahead Howard. I hope it all comes together in the end. Steve.
Thanks Steve! I can't wait to get into the garage when the weather warms up in 6 weeks or so. Going to make a lot of progressb this summer.
Phew, some hard work there Howard. I'm doing the TVR refurb but nothing like the work you have in front of you. Well done so far. Have you any plans for the front suspension mounts. The ones you have on at the moment will bend inward with pressure. But i am sure you have that in hand. Volume perfect. Steve.
Thanks Steve! Yeh, those front mounts are only so I can properly locate the top of the struts. I'll be building a proper set at a later date.
Hi Howard. Great video. Coming on nicely. Now without being critical may i suggest a couple of things that may get you more viewers etc. 1st is your title. It makes no mention of a Triumph or model other than TR135 which means nothing to someone searching on the tube or google. Triumph TR5 with BMW retrofit engine. or something similar. Then in your description box make sure you mention the same paragraph as your title, somewhere near the begining of it. I was given this info some time ago & it brought more viewers to my channel. 2nd. Your voice is very quiet & then the music is double volume. So continually turning vol up & down. Family in next room etc. Keep up the good work. Looks like it's going to be a brilliant car once done. Will keep a look out for the next video. Steve.
Thank you for the tips Steve! Yeh, I'm still learning the video editing part. I think I got it sorted for next episode. I will definitely change up the title and description. Thank you for that experience! And thanks for watching.
black fingernails are you a 12 year old goth?
They are actually purple by ILNP a color called Guest List. Aside from the fact that I like coloring my nails... I dare say, practically, I always know where my fingers are. Really easy to see while working.
Can you post more consistent?
I'll be posting every 4 weeks as I have a job and I'm doing this on weekends. I hope you'll subscribe and check out videos as I get the done.
Hi Howard. Here in the UK, way back a few mates had the TR range. 1 was a TR250. 1 was a TR6. The Injection made by i think Lucas way very poor & often failed. The straight 6 engine though was quite bulletproof. I had a Triumph 2500 PI saloon for many years & pulled my F1 Stock car along to meetings with it. Great car. I have given you a sub. On my channel i am doing a series on my newly acquired TVR Chimaera 450. Will follow your build. Good luck. Steve.
Thanks @steviegtr52! This is my first Triumph... I had the opportunity way back to buy one, but side by side with the Volvo p1800 the guy had in the driveway for the same price, I just had to to the 1800. I'm really looking forward to seeing how this turns out and eventually driving it. Either way, with the BMW135 drivetrain and really little else to add a lot of weight, it should go like stink! Thanks for watching and commenting!
Very brave of you to take on this project with just a week of welding "experience". i don't know your skill set on working with vehicles, but presumably you do have some? I am fascinate to see what transpires! Obviously you will need to add fish plates to the frame joints. I am not convinced by the number of parts that the chassis has. Seems to be too many in too short a space . You are not clamping anything that you are welding, nor do you have a jig not ensure squareness of the frame, or its relationship to the Triumph body. You will likely have some fun down the line.
Thanks man!!! Yeh, I have some experience with mechanicals on cars and a bit of body work... mostly my experience is as an industrial designer. I'm not afraid to give it a go and mess up, which I think is good for the project... perhaps not my bank account tho... The parts were laser cut so they fit really tight and square. I have only tacked them so far to hold them in place while I get way more pieces cut and laid out. There is still a lot of wiggle room for adjustment before I fully weld them out. So I'll be squaring everything up as I go along and then locking things down before final weldup. I hope you'll stick around and watch as I make my way through the project.
Loving it so far! Can't wait to see how everything develops. I can see a lot of planning has gone into this. It'll be cool to see what doesn't work and what you come up with to remedy that. I'll keep following the journey!
Thanks.
I realize in the video I attach the tig torch to the positive terminal and it should go to the negative. 😮
so the the module latches on when it sees a longer 12 volt input? moematary 1 sound, hold down for 2 sound? High & Low frequency output like traditional air horns?
That is correct. tap your horn for the OEM hold it for OEM + Secondary horn.
@@HomeBuiltByHoward thanks for the reply, very intelligent product best regards
@@vipautonyc-chucheroworld-jimmy Feel free to reach out if you'd like to get some units into your shop. I can mail you out a counter poster and our price sheet if you like.
Looks very nice! I do like it!)
I was taught in hunter safety class to never touch the fawn, as the mother might reject it with your scent.
A fawn, rather. A faun is like Pan in Greek myth.
I added the video to my RUclips channel of Pete and I helping a fawn across the road today. It was really young and didn't weigh 15 lbs. You can hear it making really cute sounds while Pete is carrying it.
How did you know it wanted to cross?
It was at the side of the road with its mother. It's mother crossed but this little guy was too scared. He turned and hid where Pete picked him up. His mother kept prancing around the field across the road until we brought him over. Then he hid again. As we drove off the mother came over to him and they both wandered off into the field.
Terrific! Good job.
:) i've literally tripped over them , really odd that it'd try to cross, usually they don't move around much , just lay there , , invisible
