After spending 4 years totally rebuilding and upgrading my Tasmin 200 I have finally got it back on the road. The first signes are very good, seems to handle well with plenty of power.
The spec is Standard 2.0L 4WD Cosworth engine (about 225 BHP), T5 Gearbox, Powerloc LSD, AP 4 pots on front, standard rear, rebuilt suspension, roll bar etc etc
Still have a few jobs to complete, the roof, suspension setup, rolling road etc
So hopefully I'll start to get to e few meets now, rather than spending all my spare time working on it.
Just activated some web space and still learning how to use it. But as a first go here is a link to a pic taken last year. I'll post some current ones later.

Superb - A true labour of love - well done.
Will it be coming to BBWF?

Afraid not. Unfortunately I booked a family weekend away before the BBWF was arranged.

So does that mean the car can make it but you can't - anyone care to offer to bring it along

Looks excellent - would you consider setting up your own garage - feel you could do some good business seeing as Peninsula/Austec are struggling to keep up

I've seen Steve's handiwork: if anyone deserves the title 'engineer' it's him. If TVR had done that in the first place we'd still be waiting for the rest of the world to catch up.

Well done mate!

Thanks guys.
A couple more pics of the engine bay added in the original post. The car could do with a respray but I didn't want to do this until I was happy with the car mechanically. I'll post more once the interior and hood are finished in the next couple of weeks.

Steve,

What little I've seen looks great. I've seen pics of a few white Wedges recently and yours could be the best so far - get some more pics up....

That looks like a fantastic job! a very professional install, and as an owner of a white Wedge it looks bloody clean too!
