We have recently started too restore our 4wd se that has been collecting dust in the workshop for far too many years...

The car is a 1971 LWB se, 1 of only 3 that remained in the UK when the other 21 LWB se models went over to the states. It was built by Liam Churchill when he owned Barnet Motor Company, he fitted the car with a Ford Boss 302ci engine mated to the Ferguson 4wd system as used in the Jenson Interceptors. A couple of other unique features on this car are the Maxeret vacuum ABS system, magnesium knock on wheels and the door catches and electric windows from an Elan +2.

The car was painted in a dark blue and silver combination and featured in Peter Wheelers book titled "The history of TVR" with its original number plate HOY 11K.

If anybody has anymore information and/or pictures of the car then please contact me.

I will try and keep this thread updated with photographs of the car during it's rebuild.
