TR2/3/3A TR3A on eBay - Worth a look

[Geo Hahn]

Or maybe I should say "WORTH A L@@K" in eBayese.

Seriously, IMO this is one sharp conversion. I have seen the car and was quite impressed with the craftmanship. I am not normally a fan of engine swaps but this fellow has created something quite distinctive and, I think, tasteful.

I've seen a bunch of pictures of this guy's car in local club events here in the L.A. area. I can't find the links now but I'll dig some more.

It's also been "chopped" 4 inches - makes it look about 20 mph faster in my opinion. Definately tasteful. I read somewhere that chopping the windshield was not a problem at all but fabricating the top and side curtains was a real challenge.

Hi,

I've seen this car and it's a very nice modified TR.

I like the fact that he used a later TR V8, rather than a Chevy or Ford.

The pictures really don't do it justice. It's a very "mean" looking TR!

I just hope the winning bidder isn't too tall!

Cheers!

I saw this car the other night and was gonna post the link, seems someone beat me to it!

Very cool looking car, and it seems a quality conversion from the comments. Wish I had the money.....

I'm not normally fond of radical mods on these cars, but this one is very artisically done. Really a looker, IMO. And, 190 HP in a TR3, whoosh!

Wish I could put it in MY garage . . .
