Very first car produced. I restored this car many years ago.
Listed on BaT with five days remaining.
Go grab a bargain.
 
So Grantura_MKI, escoboy here. i won the BaT tvr auction so the car will be coming to Escondido in the next few weeks. you mentioned having pics of the restoration. i assume it was at your shop in fallbrook a decade ago and more-or-less sat in a collection (in FL?). imho, this is a significant car in the TVR world, so any and all info i can find relating to the backstory/history of this car, i would like to collect and be able to pass on to its next caretaker. so please contact me if there are pis etc you are willing to share. many thanks

sidebar, my mutant '71 Vixen was at the fallbrook car show a couple months back. got lots of attention, then one of the judges passed by and said he owned a Vixen as well... but didn't stay to chat :-(
 
Most Vixen 25000 owners want to keep a low profile, if they don’t, they are overwhelmed by the chicks!
 
it's funny Rocky, the older I get, the better my game is... wait a minute, that sounds like "the older I get the faster/better/smarter/good looking/ad nauseum I was...

:-))
 
Yes, will share what I have. If you can find a video at woodwork when both Gerry and Martin spoke about the car and how it came to life would be good.
You will get the books that mention the car in it with your delivery I believe the UK club has the build card for it. I did see it once whilst at David Gerald TVR in the UK.
Am busy this week, but maybe next?
Don’t do the Fallbrook car show. Don’t know anyone with a Vixen, but there is a 2500M in town.
 
thanks Grantura. i will track you down once the car is here and i see what it comes with
