pic of under front of seac

Looks messy but only slight leak from steering , nice original red plastic coating ! Needs all sorting out !

[TVRleigh]

Have you got some pic's of the famous front rose joints

So we can all see what all the fuss is about.

No rose joints on her , got to get some from Steve Heath ! Mind you the suspension is so taught on her that I'm not sure it would make any difference , got to get some blue ones though !

The oil has certainly kept the chassis in good condition, bet its not as loud as your 390 though, my ears have only just recovered!

[TVRleigh]

Shame the powder coat is red. not the best contrast.

[combine]

You weren't the person with the video camera ? 390 , 125db , seac around 118 db , plus the 390 has a lot of crack and pop big time ! I love that 390 !

[TVRleigh]

and the Colonel said there was no oil leak..

that amount of PAS leakage is normally an MOT failure..

Does need a bit of a clean-up.

I thought everyone was saying that if its a SEAC it has rose joints So are SH drop links the same, better, or not as good as rose joints. Or something completely different?

[combine]

Rev knows answer to this question , I presume Steve Heath's nice blue/red rose joints would be better as they are developed on the racetrack ! Rev , any answer to this rose joint thing ?

[rev-erend]

Steve - no malice intended..

Combine - the steve heath drop links are for the anti roll bar which as far as I know never had rose joints.

The rose joints that 'most genuine' SEAC's have is between the chassis and the bottom suspension arm on the front of the car.

These 'used' to be available from Richard Thorpe - so could have been retro fitted to some lesser models.

They are also adjustable - so you could dial in some positive or negative camber.

I wouldn't mind seeing what they look like. Anyone got a 'genuine SEAC' and could post pic?

[TVRleigh]

I think you have to sign the oficial secerets act before you can see them
