...not sure I said this here, but I joined the Wedge fold last year by getting an old project 2x2 280i restro project.

Due to lack of time & other projects, it is still not running, but aiming to get it running for BBWF'18 (hopefully!)

  • Mechanically it is good to go (previous owner did all the body off on the project)
  • Wiring is a mess, but that is almost finished now (usual fun all-black wiring loom)
  • Interior is a mess, but Ziggy is playing with that now as well
  • Paintwork is... well... presentable. I'll probably respray it at some point in the next year or so, but I have 2 other projects ahead of the Wedge to do first
  • Engine works (needs a good service though)
  • Chassis is renewed
  • Suspension is renewed
  • Automatic transmission was converted by previous owner to a manual. At some point I will convert it back
Other things will be done based on MOT and drive findings.

So, yes, be afraid! I will be turning up to more Wedge events in an actual TVR... yikes

I'll probably be able to come with or without a TVR.

I came last couple of years in either a Lotus or a Merc, just nice to come in a TVR for once... biggrin
