Convoy of TVR's making good... progress. wink

Had a blast today with the Herts & Beds organised hoon. I was the only Wedge in amongst 50 other curvies! Really was a good day. yes

Anyway, after terrorising all & sundry the convoy finished at a pub with a large carpark for pic's & Tiv talk.
I then heard another rumble except this time it turned out to be another Wedge.. another Seac.. another 450 SEAC! (common as muck, clearly)hehe

I ended up having a good chat with the owner Jim. I'd not seen this SEAC before and i think he mentioned he hadn't taken it to BBWF before.
Anyway the car was immaculate with a very shiny engine bay, equally mint was the chassis.. all Jims hard work.

Some pic's with mine:

Nice rims on the red one, Are they Image wheels? They look similar to the yellow SEAC racer

Umm..he made his own supports so with the spoiler higher, it's easier to ahem.. clean underneath.

Imho, would look much better if the front was left low. Would give the 'high downforce' look.

Sorry can't remember the make, but you're right..very similar. Much smaller though. I think these were 15"

Jim used to go to the northnts meets , and he turned up with that red 450 seac a few years ago , bought it off pistonheads ( I remember it being on there ) and as he does with all his Tvr's ( 3 at last count ) , he takes them apart completely and then starts again using new nuts/bolts etc !

That i can well believe! His car was mint. Wonder if he's bored & fancies doing another. scratchchin

Maybe it wasn't such a wise move parking mine next to his.. frown

I have to say that the Wedge's hood looks sooo much better than the Chim's when fully down.

Chim's looks like it should be on a bleedin pram !

I'll get me coat...getmecoat

Having owned a 450 Chimaera before i can confirm that not only do they not fold as nicely as the wedge, you can't see out the rear view mirror!!
