Vixen S3, KTF **8K
Discussion
Hello all on the Classics forum.
I've just been scanning the forum pages and it got me thinking about the whereabouts of my dads old Vixen S3 (KTF **8K). He bought it in qute a rough but usable state, with faded green bodywork and a few star cracks and some corroded outriggers. He eventually did a full chassis refurbishment (including getting it powder coted bright blue!) and having the body resprayed in Nightfire red mettalic.
It was a lovely car and driving it gave me the TVR bug. I was wondering if anybody knows anything about the car, or it's history since he sold it over 10 years ago. Did his home-made bonnet sub-frame last? and has it still got the tiny 'Paddy Hopkirk' bucket seats in it....
