So, I have just acquired a 1975' TVR 2500M. It is missing the engine and transmission, plus a few other things such as the seats, etc. I am not in possession of the car yet (figuring out a pick up date) so I am not exactly sure of what is all missing. My biggest worry at the moment is finding new rear hub carriers. Does anyone know of someone who has a set, or someone who is making replicas?

If you're in the States it could be worth contacting these people: http://www.wirewheel.com/TVR.html as they seem to have been dealing with TVRs for years. smile

I apologize, I forgot to mention I am in the states. Thank you guys for the quick responses though, this seems like a great forum to be a part of. I will post my build thread once it gets underway. The process will be a bit slow due to racing season now starting but I want to have it mostly done by fall (high hopes). The thing that will hold me back is getting a new title for it. I cant exactly start until the title goes through in case there is no way it will see the streets ever again

Join the pre80's (yahoo?) email list. There's a guy in the states going V8 conversion and has most of the drivetrain/suspension pieces to sell.

Where are you? He's in California (I believe). I'm in Georgia, one of 2 2500's that I know of running.
