Cracking looking car, I know its a simple mod though I really think the clear indicators are a no brainer!

Looking forward to the whole story!

I was wondering that too, but you have to admit the lack of mechanical detail and photos associated with a AJP conversion to a chimp are more than offset by the clear lens indicators hehe.

Ah right............... cause TVR shop are £10 each, but fiesta ones on e-bay which look the same are £7 a pair inc bulbs

1 more quest.............. what are the actual front indicators off cause they also look good

Might as well get something out of it as he's not going to lift bonnet and show us AJP conversion

And i'm assuming the AJP is the V8 or is it the speed six, because i thought both were AJP and just known as AJP8 or AJP6

I think that it has to be the 8 because the chassis needs to be modified to fit the 6. Although the engines were launched as described there was a name change on the 6 to Speed 6 but that's a long, long, story.
