I’ve nearly finished restoring my 1971 TVR 2500.

I need to get hold of the correct TVR bonnet badge, and rear TVR badge – guess this is all the car had in terms of ID apart from the numbers 2500 down the sill line. Does anyone re-manufacture these and have stock for sale ? (If the owners club sell them – I’m not yet in it )

Regards

Mike

Hi

I don't think the M series 2500 had the letters 2500 on the sill line. With the earlier Vixen bodied cars TVR were trying to differentiate the 2500 from the 1600cc Vixens.With the M series it wasn't so necessary.

Regards

Mike

Hi All

Thanks for info. I'll give David Geralds a call. I am aware of DG as I have bought parts from them............but found them a bit expensive !! I was hoping someone else might have some.

The 2500 is looking very nice. I've kept to the original colour which is Ford fox silver. I haven't been able to take any pictures yet to post with this topic as the brakes on this car aren't operational at the moment and I have a sloping driveway !
