    I recently did some horse trading with my brother and one of the vehicles I ended up with was a white/black 1971 TVR Vixen 2500. Not sure if I want to restore it myself or sell it. It had lots of resoration work done by the previous owner including paint, suspension, wheel restoration and engine rebuild. Driveline was pulled to repair a frozen clutch and never reinstalled. Im finishing up a TR6 and just have too many irons in the fire at the moment. If there is any interest would consider selling.

    Pretty nifty! Haven't seen a TVR in the flesh since I saw a whole yard of various examples somewhere around Ballston Spa, NY back around 1989/1990.

    Thanks for all the compliments, it is a very unique vehicle for sure. Would love to find someone who could put the time into restoring it!

    Well, no takers on this car so it looks like I am just going to have to restore it. Engine has gone to the machine shop, body will come off the frame and head to the powder coater next week. Ill update with some photos as it progresses. Looks like I may need to change the title of the thread.

    Have fun I wished I could have bought it. No time for any more projects.
