Have been having a major clear out in my garages and have come across the seat skins from my old 1969 Tuscan. These are not ripped or tatty and were only really changed as I was doing a rebuild, whilst I worked for a furniture manufacturer, and was able to get them recovered in leather. They are as the upholsterer took them apart (all in separate sections and minus the piping), with all foams and importantly the templates he manufactured to make the new covers; so these could be used to make new covers.
Now if these are of any use to anyone let me know, the templates make them difficult to post so to be collected only.

That is a coincidence as I live near Felsham so will pass close by whenever I go into town, however do not get too excited as the Tuscan went many years ago and I understand it is going through yet another rebuild with yet another new owner. Two years ago I sold my 4.3 Griffith so we do not have a TVR in the household. I assume you are an owner, it would not be the dark coloured V8 or S series that often burbles by but I can never get out or close to a window to see exactly which model it is?

Yes I'm an owner, sadly not on the road though just work in progress !!!!!!!! I'm actually Great Whelnetham just over the 134 although I work at Cargate Farm (just past Bradfield woods) sometimes and I was born at Grange Farm Felsham.
Up until around 10 years ago I would regularly meet a red M driven by a lady (from Gedding I think) can't remember either of your cars though.

Yes I remember it well, do you know if it's still on the road? Did your Griffith ever go to Bennicks at Bradfield by any chance?

Yes I am sure it is as the person who bought it spent a lot of money on it to make it concourse. No the Griff. always went to Kerridges if I could not tackle the problem myself, however use Bennicks for all our other daily cars; they are clever guys and very reasonable in my experience.
