I've just been sent a picture of a Tuscan racer being converted for the road. What a gorgeous looking car the Tuscan racer is. Given that TVR still produce these cars for racing (albeit in small numbers), couldn't they do the necessary to get them on the road too? Full convertible, safe (full roll cage), little development work to do, proven engine (AJP8) and it would appeal exactly to the people that the Tuscan Speed 6 and Tomato doesn't. It's still the best looking car they've ever made IMHO. Go on PW, please... Just think, all those people lusting after them at race tracks could go into a dealer and buy one!

No it's another one Steve's doing at the moment. Should have more in-depth coverage in a few weeks.

Hopefully I'll be able to do an article on this in the next few weeks. Ian W is keeping some notes of the issues and costs involved in doing the conversion. Once it's done we'll get some pics and publish a feature.
