So here I was thumbing through an old FEB 78 issue of Custom Car mag (The ones with the norks) and I come across an S2 Vixen or Tuscan V8 with side pipes, front chin spoiler and chunky slot mags. The Reg number isn't clear but looks as if it could be..ATE or MTB or NTB 145G. its a grainy black and white photo but the car looks 2 tone and possibly even a vinyl roof...any cockney geezers shed any light on this one...Mr Lyons??

Hello,

The TVR started as a Vixen S2 with a 1600 Ford crossflow, I modified it and fitted an MGB V8 and manual gearbox with a Jaguar limited slip diff,

The car was painted in Ford Copper bronze and had a vinyl roof with the rear lamps blacked out, I can't remember the brand of side pipes but the wheels were Cobra Slot mags,

I have a couple of picture around if I can find them, and would love to know where the car is now

You’ll have to type faster than that! ;

There should be a smiley face after that.

Neil, 13 years later, but someone has now read your post. This interweb thing is brilliant - I do think it'll catch on laugh

Richard - yes please, lets see the photo's if you can find some.
