420 / 450 SEAC wanted for Classic Car show

[JFF]

I'm organizing the TVR car clubs stand at the Alexandra Palace classic car show on the 24th & 25th February. The stand is in a special display area in the main hall and will be celebration of 60 years of TVR production. A significant model from each decade will be displayed to show the evolution of the marque over 60 years. I'm looking for a club member who has a 420/450 SEAC that they could display on the stand.
Please contact me on the e-mail address below if you are intrested and wish to find out more.
There are a few more details posted on the clubs website under news items on the front page.

I'm also looking for the following two models of TVR as well so if club members can help please contact me.

M Series Turbo
Sagaris

Many thanks

I have been known to put up with all sorts as long you can stop me roaming the streets in search of a decent beer...
Previous NEC, Le Mans Friday night parade, Goodwood FoS, Playstation GT4 and Shepton Cow Shed experience
Mail me if you want to take this further (and are that desperate)...

Well done Duncan

Mine's in a thousand bits..

Rev! Your car did cross my mind. Wondered why you hadn't already been 'volunteered'
Given they are after either a 420 or 450 I suspect they will be able to find a more local SEAC. I'd prefer it if they can, I'm already doing the Bristol Class Car Show on the 17/18 Feb. SEAC seem popular this year!

Goodwood FoS was bizarre, I didn't want to do go!
I had Gang on the Green and a Folk Festival straddling the FoS weekend; I was helping organise both events and FoS seemed too much!
However the TVRCC were told if they couldn't get a 450 SEAC then TVR would be dropped from the display.
It seems all the other 450 owners had better excuses and I ended up having to say yes.
Had a bloomin good time though!

That's one in the eye to those in the club who don't love us Wedgers

It was the bad boy Muscle Car display - had to be a Wedge

Nick Mason's F40 on one side and JK from Jamiroquoi's BMW 2002 on the other.
Don't see a TVR in that sort of company too often - LOL

[JFF]

Yes I would bve intrested in using your car, I'll contact you of line.
I wanted a 420/450 SEAC as I think its the ultimate and best looking (my own opinion) wedge ever made. Of course I can't forget it also makes the best sound.

Fancy having the 5th 350i built ? Might be the oldest in captivity!

Mine's appeared on the cover of "The Encyclopedia of Supercars volume 42".
However, it's a red 450 SEAC that forms the bulk of the feature, not mine; could be the same as Benno's mag.

Mine was also reviewed by Auto Express
