It Almost Looks Like A Car Posted October 29, 2006 Posted October 29, 2006 My 1st attempt at sports car owning needs a new home, she is a 1978 on a S plate fixed head TR7 2l coupe with sliding vinyl roof in a classic BL red/orange with red tartan and black interior. I have had her for just over ten years, and for many years she ran like a dream. But kids, carear and now building my Westy has got in the way! At the moment she is a non-runner, but is all complete and with a bit of TLC will go again. Like all almost 30 year old TR7's she has her fair share of rust, but has only two replacement panels(2 front wings), fully original interior complete with carpets, all original switches and radio etc. Have many interesting bits to go with her including original owners handbook, original dealer service manuals, as well as more recent Haynes manual. She is free to a good home. So tell all you friends, and help save a bit of classic English motoring history!!! Anyone who might be interested can contact me via pictures@atp-photo.com

Peter M Posted October 30, 2006 Posted October 30, 2006 As you can see from my pics below I used to rally a TR7V8 many years ago.
slippy Posted October 30, 2006 Posted October 30, 2006 Saw one last year at Stoneliegh and the noise was arousing to say the least
It Almost Looks Like A Car Posted October 31, 2006 Author Posted October 31, 2006 I think the only thing mine has in common with that monster of a car is that is the same red, but headlights still pop up and down!!!!
