These are 1680lbs. stock…
here is my favorite:
$1 would be my offer, lol.
Always thought these were cool. Doesn’t look like a lot of room for an engine swap though.
TVR’s are really cool.
there’s enough, people have swapped all kinds of V8s into them. probably about still well under 2000lbs even with one.
Super cool until you find out the chassis is a rot box and you have to rebuild the whole thing
I love TVRs too!!!
I got $100 that i’ll put on this if someone completes it… i get to drive it a couple times… that’s all.
Great candidate for a miata drivetrain.
Or leave it as is and shove a small block in it…
I have SO many spare parts. Lets make room in your garage and go get it.
I can help arrange a pickup, I’m in Syracuse

Something tells me he’s going to want a lot more than $1, even for a project in this kind of shape.
If someone does contact him and gets a ballpark price post it up here.
Oh man I love these cars. There was one rolling around the Harlem and 33 area last summer. I posted in the spotted thread when I saw it. Such a sweet car!
seriously, someone find out what this guy wants. id love a project like this.

i was just looking up a little on TVR, the company’s name comes from the consonants of the founder’s name - Trevor…
what an idiot haha
why does that make him an idiot?
STFU ARN!
Email him, lol
Gave Rick a Call. Bottom dollar is $4500.00. Been in storage in a barn. He will also have title in hand within the next month. He has quite a few extra parts for the car. All original glass is there but the side windows are coming apart. He got into contact with a company in Canada TRD that says they can reproduce the glass. Also a 70’s and 80’s Jag rear end fits nice in these things with VERY minimal work. He seems to know a lot about the car and planned to do a lot of work himself but being 60 its time just to sell.
