I believe it is in the VIP lounge being pampered to all its needs, and there are plenty of them😄

Is there a good way to share photos and post here that can be done without me having to resize each picture?

The heart, not pulsing yet but with a little surgery it will live again.



Up-rated jag rear diff will help handle the power, and one happy boy. Not sure he is aware of the work we have ahead might get it read for road by the time he has passed his test.

Yes but no lol

It had more straps on it than you could imagine, the car was secured by straps on the wheels correctly. the ones you see over the body just there to keep doors shut and stop any of the flat packages flying out of the car, they were loose.

It was registered as a mk IV but like many TVR's has been subject to modifications.

Apparently it has race history and i will be doing all i can to find out all i can.

I have original chassis and also the griffith spec chassis it is sitting on now.

Not sure what spec i am going to rebuild car to yet, just happy it is mine and will be doing plenty of research prior to choosing what i will rebuild car to. Fancy building to some track specification as i have now stopped racing motorbikes and fancy a little classic car fun.

Hi yes body is now like vixen s2 and onwards, bolt on and off.

Will take pics once apart, and as project evolves.

Still not made mind up on what it will be when finished.

I will be popping up at few race events I can get to to see what's what and if i can catch the bug
