[gmw9666]

As you guys know my SEAC been sat in a field for years and year and yesterday the old girl passed her 1st mot since October 2001........15 years off the road!

Can't wait to pick her up later

As found below and I'll post some clean pics after she's had a good wash

Well done, it'll be interesting to see it sometime! It's earlier than mine, mines 1st Aug registered too but is chassis 530.

Nice one .. I hope to join the road going SEAC club again soon.

Still with the original NCK004 engine as well

The engine bay does look very original; I wonder if the engine's still got all those horses, and what it's like to drive!

[rev-erend]

TVR's never had the horses that were claimed..

Just made up numbers.

290~300 bhp was a more likely figure but with such a light car nobody really cared.

Hi Glen

Well done, its great to hear that another SEAC is back on the road. I hope the manifolds did the job for you?

Now go out there are enjoy her.

Hi

With Glen's SEAC back on the road and hopeful Alan's will not be to far behind it.
But I am wondering how many more are there still sitting in garages, sheds and fields which need people like Glen to come along and save them.
We all know about the 660SEAC.
I know there's another 420 in the Channel Islands, which just sits in a barn-lean too!

Drives well, slightly different to the 420SE, the SEAC engine feels a bit more meaty if that makes sense, revs easily to 6k no problem at all, pulls like a train but the gears seem to last longer on the SEAC vs the 420SE (maybe different gears in box or diff)

Running temp wheels at the mo so need to sort new tyres on the old OZ split rims

All in all great to have her on the road and usable :-)

As jeremy clarkson would say " I think I have had a trouser moment" that sounds bloody great.

Hi,
Will have a look in my garden for a SEAC and put it in a warm garage.
You should be behind bars for neglecting such a nice car.

And you are wearing gloves when touching the car.
It needs love and caring with naked skin.

Getting philosophic when seeing such a car in despair.

Hans

Any other neglected Wedge known that is in need of reanimation??

[rev-erend]

I think it was not his garden .. he spotted it from the road and made enquiries with the owner.

[Hansoplast]

Oke,
Will change my strategy
Go in a wide circle around the house.
You never know the result, but I assume it will be a Viva or 2CV.

Thank you Hans for brightening up my day....
