T350C Restoration/ History Required. RV52 ZNC
Discussion
Hi All,
First time post on this forum but long time TVR owner. Bit of boring background...... I like to 'restore/rescue' tired examples of TVRs as a dream and hobby. So far I have restored a Chimaera 4.0 (fully), and a Cerbera 4.2 (mostly). I acquired a neglected 2003 T350C back in April which is also my dream car. Don't get me wrong, the time, parts and effort for each restoration has easily left me out of pocket over the years so I certainly don't do it for the money
I have started to rebuild this one from the ground up and is now 70% completed, the list is quickly becoming endless. It will shortly have a fully rebuilt 3.6 as I want to keep it original (barr the Sagaris rear spoiler, sorry.)
I was just wondering if anybody can shed any light as to its history and even factory build?. I do have history up to approx 2010 when it appears it was taken off the road. It had a new owner in approx 2012 for a short while. The car was registered in January 2003 so not sure how early off the line it was actually produced. It is definitely a very early model as it lacks rear boot cover, sun visors, recessed boot glass, glovebox etc.
The car has only covered 19,000 miles and will eventually be a stunner along with the rest of them. It's a keeper so any info would be greatly received.
Thanks in advance.

Hi VetTVR
Glad to see she is still in good condition. More than happy to chat over it if you want? A LOT of work went into her and there are probably many things you might not notice.
I hope she treats you really well. Hell of a car that I greatly miss. Still got a big canvas pic of her in my garage! Have got some prints I could send over too if I can find them.
