New Toy

[TXCoyote]

Just bought a TVR Wedge. Been wanting one awhile. It'll go great with my MGB GT and Stag. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/driving.gif

Way to go!! You'll love driving it and answering the question What is that? or Who makes that? at stop lights. 5 other guys here in Orlando have 280i's but I can never get us all together for a picture.

Thanks for the input guys. I really am looking forward to it arriving in about a week or so. Shipping a car is an exercisein patience and I hate exercise......

I've always loved those cars. Like a TR7 on steroids! My buddy used to have a Tasmin, and when new it could out stop-light drag a Porsche 911.

Enjoy it!!!

I would really like a 3000S some day.

I came very close to buying a 3000M once (converted from a 2500M using cast off parts from a 3000S to 351 conversion). There are too many TVR V8 conversions in my opinion, but that was to my advantage for a while. I got a nice dual weber set up off a 1600cc Vixen which was changed over to a V8.

yeah, everyone wants a Griffith, but I decided to go for a wedge because driving an earlier car with poor ventilation in Texas in the Summer would be suicide.
