RETURN TO TVR - MAD OR NOT - NEED HELP!

[general_lee]

The story goes something like this Had a 400HC, then a Z3M, then a Maserati Spyder (which I still have but am selling) and have just in a moment of madness taken pity on a neglected Chimaera 400 - I may be mad!! Anyhow, although I stil remember quite a bit about TVR and their peculiarities, there are a number of problems with this car that I could do with help on .... please !!!

Firstly the door locks/ central locking - I took the top off the dash - there is a Gemini 2339 unit on top of (and connected to) a TVR engineering door locking unit. The gemini unit's transformer has blown - I have therefore disconnected to stop hazzards flashing but can't seem to find a replacement - any ideas.

Also, anyone know where to get an "engine turned" dash for the car - pics would be good if anyone has done this?

I've ordered a new hood from Dave Hammerton so that should look the part.

Aside from that I need to a new o/s door mirror and am in the process of repairing the boot hinges (done this one before)and finding the leaks (done that before too)

..... still nice to be back getting my hands dirty though.

Ohh - finally - anyone know where I can get an owners handbook - it was supplied, but had been for a swim and didn't take kindly to it!!

Thanks
Paul
