TR7 Replacement Body Panel Project (TR Drivers Club Tooling Fund)

Too many people duplicate work that others already have done ... if you're having something remade then tell us about it! Success and Disasters, they are all useful to know about!

In case anyone has missed it the new headlamp panels have arrived. We've had 10 produced and if these sell then Ex-Pressed Steel Panels Ltd. will put them back into production so it's in all our interestst that this is a success. Once they've sold we can move onto the next TR7 panel reproduction project. Cost of a panel is £624.59.

Just British have all the information up already including a link to the video with all the details and good sight of the new panels so take a look here and subscribe to their weekly newsletter which will keep you up to date with everything that goes on in Britain in relation to the motor industry: https://justbritish.com/tr7-8-headlamp- ... roduction/

Just wondering if there has been/is any further activity on the subject of new panel tooling? In particular tooling for new front wings?

The overwhelming silence to this question suggests to me that sadly the new tooling initiative has probably ceased; or perhaps there is some information buried somewhere within the garbage on Facebook?
