Triumph TR6 - tr6 roll bar

I am looking for a roll bar - specifically the twin hump (1 behind each headrest - like the one's used on the Miata) for my 75 TR6.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

TRGB Ltd in the UK supply twin roll bars, one for behind each seat. Never used TRGB myself, but have seen some for sale on ebay before. A couple of links below, picture of them in a car and link to the site.

Gerry,
Those roll bars look great and on a Miata they make sense. The uni-body construction would help support the mounting points if you ever took a roll.
That same roll bar bolted to the TR6 sheet metal would be useless in a roll over. They must be attached to the frame if they are going to serve as protection.
They do look nice though and would make great mounting points for a back draft screen.

That TR250 is about to test the crashability of the bars I believe. Sorry to be repetitive but I'm still looking for a single hoop behind the driver if anybody knows where to get one. I know it's only good for cosmetics but I really liked the look of the single bar I had in my TR4A.

It looks like you could buy the pair, put one in your car, and sell the other on e-bay. JMHO though.

Gene:

I don't think it's a "pair". I believe they are connected lower down - likely a base plate and there would be some cutting required. I'm looking for the type that does not have the center brace connected at the top of the hoop - spoils the look. I know these bars are out there as as I had one and one contributor here posted a pic of his 6 last year with the chrome single hoop bar. There's got to be one out there somewhere for sale.I just keep posting once in a while hoping to hit one.

Cheers,

I'd try popping into a local race car shop and see if they couldn't bend and weld one up for you. It shouldn't be too expensive and you'd get exactly what you want.
