Due to the success of finding Keith and his quest to recover WFD i am going to compile a number of photos that various margues of vehicles that i regret and feel sad of selling them..
Please feel free to anyone wishing to do the same,especially if they are TVR`s

Found a really nice Tuscan V8 and fellow Vixen being worked on by a French chappie on another post of piston headsfrom last year..
Don`t know how to link it to this thread though..

Fantastic to see yesterday.

[limjamrace]

Wow what a picture..The light brings out the best of the orange paintwork ..
The 3/4 angle shows the gorgeous curves at its best..
Did Keith know you were taking the picture?

[1969tuscan]

Hi David didn’t know that picture was taken but they were takeing pictures as we were driveing into showgrownd so it must of been one of them, omg disaster Just dropped car off at painters this morning graised rear wheel arch on garage door not bad but £170 to put right ,Won’t make that mistake again , suppose these things happen

[limjamrace]

Yes i have flashbacks with the memories like where i took it to a pub and backed into a parking space,,When i came out someone had given it a kicking..
There is a also gruesome tale connected to where it was parked up outside that shared accommodation house but not motor vehicle related..
I will give you the story some time if you wish but not on here..

[1969tuscan]

Hi David would like to her story. Face book me

Always great to hear the updates, car looks great on the moors and wonderfully small.

I've suggested this thread as a Reader's Car of the Week, as it's such a great story, but seems to have been overlooked by the PH overlords.
