Some of you may remember this post where I introduced my two cars, one being a TVR 2500M.
http://www.carjunkietv.com/forum/index.php?topic=711.0
Well, another one kind of just showed up in my shop (after I towed it from NYC to Ohio anyway!). So I thought I'd share some pictures of it.
It's the typical unfinished project car that I got for a fraction of it's value. The chassis and drivetrain are done. The engine has been bored .030,
the head milled to raise the compression ratio to about 10.5:1, the head has been mildly ported, it has a performance cam in it, etc..
It should put out about 160-170 Hp in this 2k lb car, so not exactly fast, but still pretty entertaining. It came with just about every new part needed to put it
back together, and I still get to do the parts that are important to me - paint and interior. I'll likely sell the white one now, as I don't have time, money or room for both.
I know it's not a typical Hot Rod, but let me know what you think.
