Gernerally the car is pretty good considering it has been stored for 9 years. Engine sounds sweet and revs like a Kawasaki. It seems to have all the right bits and is 100% complete. Will try to get it out for Oulton.

Oh, and the ironing board on the back is going!!!!!!!!

Car was originally raced by the TVR Centre. Will find out more history over the next few days.

Need a fair bit of recommissioning but, on the face of it, not many new parts needed.

Knackered now so going for a beer.

Underneath that wing and later wheels looks to be a very authentic and original Challenge car - you've fell on your feet with that one Dave.

Also got 3 OZ split rims, 1 extra Dymag and 4 TSW wheels, a box full of bits and bats, and a few AJP bits such as air box, loom (?) and exhaust parts. I'll have a good shufty through tomorrow.

Looks fantastic Dave. Is that the old TVR Centre Gerry Marshall car? Whatever the case it looks really nice and should be a great addition to the championship field. I look forward to seeing you out in it.
