WY TVRCC monthly meet at Railway Pub Drig on Wednesday
Discussion
We normally have our monthly meeting at the Manor Golf Club in Driglington, Bradford
on the 3rd Sunday of the month (and all are welcome)
Unfortunately neither Deputy Simon (Batley Boy) nor I, can attend this month on the 21st
so we have decided instead to use the old PH haunt of the Railway Pub (BD11 1JJ)on WEDNESDAY 17th April
We will meet from about 7pm (while it is still light)and all Pistonheaders are welcome to join us
This is open to all petrolheads and not just TVR drivers
Just an opportunity to all get together and drive the cars and catch up with imminent TVR events
Hope you can join us
Cheers

I might pop up, I'm literally round the corner. I don't have a TVR though
Hi Jimmy you are welcome to come have a look - just say hello (everyone knows me)
so we know who you are if looking round the cars
Coincidence - My son (James)has just bought a Aygo Fire (same as VW Up)

Cheers Trickie, I would love to take you up on that.
You did let me have a sit in it a while ago at the autosolo at the Galpharm (or whatever the Town ground is called this week lol)
The wedge I am going to look it is only a 2.8 but apart from a lack of seats and carpets looks to be in really good nick so I am going to risk the wrath of my OH and go look at it
Remember just to check the chassis (especially the outriggers) and all the electrics if you canYou did let me have a sit in it a while ago at the autosolo at the Galpharm (or whatever the Town ground is called this week lol)

I am a bit in 2 minds about the car,
Good Bits
the bodywork is in really good nick, roof lining, doorcards and dash look good (no cracking to the veneer), the original alloys are in good shape and the front half of the chassis has been relatively recently painted and looks in good shape, the back half of the chassis looks ok, a bit of surface crud but I couldnt really get a good look at it.
Bad bits
No battery so unable to start the engine and make sure it is ok and the seller has never run it
Not able to check the gearbox/brakes/suspension properly
Exhaust system missing from manifolds back
wiper arms missing
Water sat in battery tray
water sat in the space between drivers seat(if it was present) and the door possibly caused by the plastic trim between the door and the side window being missing.
Money pit or worth saving?
Probably a money pit - with so much taken to chanceGood Bits
