Don't think anyone has spotted this yet? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/TVR-350i-project-with-lo...

Looks like a fantastic project for someone and an absolute bargain at the price it's currently at.

I like how the seats look...I would of thought it would go for more nearer or be worth 4K...Especially with the spare chassis, Diff and hubs etc....Bargain.

You could buy it, sell the chassis to Holland for ££££, then put the new chassis on and register a new Wedge with a 14 plate!!!

Looks to me that the chassis is a later wishbone rear end whilst the car is earlier trailing arm

Did the fixed heads ever swap over? As with most TVR changes, there's about a two year spread depending on using up old stock, when the car was finished and how long it hung around before it was registered.

Yep to me

Being honest I am looking at using some of this for a 450SE restore so will be seperating out the bits and reselling some of them. Regards

Hi Glen, I must admit to having a bid on this one third time round but I think what could have been putting people off is when You read the description it does said that all the interior was out. But no pictures of it in it's current state , only before it was dismantled. The seller was totally upfront about it but when you can't see what needs doing You always think it's worse than it probably is.
Also something that had me thinking was how would I get it home with the seperate chassis ? No roof bars on current daily tow vehicle !
But as you say , a bargain for the winner , not so good for the seller .

Cheers
Geoff.

And what are you doing with the complete car?...What parts are you going to use for the 450SE as I'm sure 350i parts are different......
