alackofspeed2 0 Posted September 14, 2006 The wait is up - PVW Cover - get your copy sharpish.. ;-) :) From the filth on your hands, anyone would think you work down a coal mine! :) Good article. Any chance of getting the car and your name on the "hall of fame" before you let it go!? :evil: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
biggerbigben 0 Posted September 15, 2006 Why is it everyone who knows me keeps going on about my bloody hands! If only you knew how much work Me and Mr H put in this weekend doing an R32 engine transplant in 2 days and getting the car started at 10:30 pm on sunday you wouldn't moan about my bloody mits! Most of it is blood anyway! ;-) Anyway.. I might have a word with PVW to see if they are having a shoot out at anytime, but tbh, it might be a nice thing for the new owner to have a crack at!??

dubber31 0 Posted September 18, 2006 Car looks stunning in the mag fella!! Congratulations Sorry to hear you have to get rid of it!! Paul Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fla 9 Posted September 19, 2006 Stunning - a real shame you are selling. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fla 9 Posted September 20, 2006 In fact, if its still not sold in about 6-7 months i would definitely certainly be in a better position to buy it. Would be good to see it go to another forum member though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Furkz 0 Posted September 20, 2006 went to the local road radio today and one of the guys started chatting abt some rado in a mag with a tvr dash today :wink: then he reognised mine and then he started talking abt Jay's. Guy was a proper rado nutter,,, was surprised he worked at road radio afterwards lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CorradoVR6-Turbo 0 Posted September 20, 2006 The wait is up - PVW Cover - get your copy sharpish.. ;-) :) Just looking at the battle scared ,black finger nails hands from all the work you have done.... :lol: Don't do it :cry: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
biggerbigben 0 Posted September 24, 2006 thanks for all the comments. I haven't been on here for ages as been really busy at work but basically I have had a few people interested but going to advertise it in the mags next month. If it hasn't gone by the end of Nov then I'm going to break it as I need the cash for the house deposit... cheers B Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mattnorgrove 0 Posted October 5, 2006 Bought PVW over the weekend. Have to say your C takes the cake. Too 8) The TVR interior is out of this world. Did they misprint what it cost? Looks like thousands worth... Tres bien.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
biggerbigben 0 Posted October 6, 2006 Cheers chap.. Nope thats correct. The 'original' TVR interior cost me £500 - complete.. I then sold the TVR seats for £300 odd and the dials for another £250-300 odd.. so effectivly it cost me nothing! Then I prob used about £200-300 of glass fibre + filler + other materials and hell of alot of sweat and hardwork to get it to what it is today! Leather + retrim was on top.. It used 8 hides of leather.. so you do the math for how much the leather cost me!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
