Ok, so picked the car up from S&D and D&C on Friday and managed to get back to London without any chips :] Very happy with just a few niggles and teething problems to sort, don't think the car will make Spa but should be at Chatsworth fingers crossed?
Just wanted to say a bid thank you to all those involved, the list is long but you know who you are.I'll have some more pics later but just took a few with crappy camera!

Thanks guys, there have been times i thought i'd never get the car back on the road! but cleaning it in the sun today felt good :]

The seats are Lotus with the backs painted and a re-trim.

The bonnet is from Fiberon[damaged tvrs], fitted and fettled by S&D, i managed to match the honey combe pattern from the top of the engine to the bonnet and front vents.

Should have some better pictures soon.

The power delivery is different to say the least!

Ah I know who you are now! Many thanks for allowing me to swop my steering wheel with you. I trust that is my old steering wheel on your 'new' motor. All looks wonderful. I saw your car and seats when I was up there last week. Did you see my Griff - the red one!! Should of been well and truly in bits! Dave and Chris hopefully will be on target to finish the interior by the end of the month. In time for the Neil Garner Open Day in the Cotswolds on Easter Saturday. Will you be bringing your Griff to our event?? All details are on the TVR events page. Look forward to your reply.

Paul
