Hi Andrew

I agree with that I have the same with the SEAC racer!

I also hope the "White Elephant" doesn't ever come up for sale as it would be hard to turn down and at what cost!

The White Elephant is in final paint at Bristol Avenue at the moment and we hope to be finishing her off over the next month or two, so as Mr Tank says, we do hope to make an appearance at the BBWF.

Will post some pictures up over the next few days - she's looking good!

A nice sunny day for taking Tiv pics...

Here is a shot of the car just having come out of the S&D spray booth this week:



There are a few more smaller images in the TVR White Elephant Restoration Archive

Thanks to all the hard work that Surface and Design have put in, the beast should look at least as good as the first time PW took her home.

Cheers guys!

Tha back is coping OK, the fking BIG injections into the sciatic nerve every now and again certainly help......

Probably going to need one again soon as my old beastie is back in my garage for some investigation and repair!!!
