You know, I would mind so much if these people actually finished these creations. Always see them up for sale after the major butchery has been done but none of the details to actually make it driveable.

I like the front spoiler/valance panel on that car. I wouldn't mind having it on my car. The Bumper looks like a UK version too (but I might be wrong).

I have known this particular car since 1986. It was refurbished back in 1998 with tons of $$$$$$$ (at least 20K). I was interesting to ride in and felt like a nightmare to drive with the short wheel base and narrow track! It spent almost 99% of its life in Plymouth, Mass. The front spoiler is part of a Rimmer Bros. body kit. I think they sell the front spoiler seperate from the kit? The front bumper is painted so it looks different but it still a US bumper.

I remember years ago seeing a TR7 bodyshell on a modified Range Rover Chassis called "Strange Rover". did have a photo of it, but can I find it now. . . . . . . . .

<font face="Comic Sans MS"><font size="2">That front spoiler would be of more use on your car than where it is now! Seeing that the purpose of a front spoiler is to prevent air from getting under the car by redirecting it elsewhere so as not to cause aero dynamic lift. As that one is about 3 bloody feet from the ground it's not serving any useful purpose where it is! Although it is in with keeping with the rest of the car..... that is completely pointless!</font id="size2"></font id="Comic Sans MS">

Never say die. At least not while you're still breathing.

[Last TR]

Maybe this is the one Wedggie Perrin is thinking of, from Chris Harvey's book, TR for Triumph. The caption reads "One man's idea of a TR8, a TR7 with a strong Range Rover influence, picture in British off-road racing in 1983."

TR8-
It is a 1977 TR7 Coupe. Nothing special. I will say back in 1998 it had a tone of work done to it, paint, body kit, interior and engine detailing. I sold him/them about half of the NLA parts from many parts cars I chopped up.
