I was approached by someone who is looking to pass along their S3 project car. Phillpot and I went over to have a look at it. Brief summary.

Body off chassis for chassis repair and powder coat in 2009.
Body placed back on chassis and pushed into garage in 2009.
No servo.
Lots of bits in boxes, may not be enough to build an entire car.
Stainless exhaust.
Stainless fuel tank.
Hood just about had it.
Paintwork is challenged.

It seems to be too good to break up for parts.

The guy just wants to move it on now as he has no enthusiasm to rebuild it. He has another driving TVR to go out in now.

If anyone is interested then let me know and I will pass on his details.

I'm not looking for a project, but I must say that colour suits the car.

I may be interested. Whereabouts in the country is it ?

Do you know whether it was mechanically OK before coming off the road?

You (should) have a pm

I do like the colour.

Is the project car an S3C or just an S3?

S3, I think I saw some airflow metres somewhere in all the piles of bits!

Oh yes, that is the engine with twin airflow metres isn't it.
