1967 TR4A - SUV 407F


Recommended Posts

I bought SUV 407F as an unfinished project (complete rolling bodyshell (no paint)) from Crown Classic Cars (Twickenham) for £5,000 in late 1993.

 

I finished it off to an extremely high standard in about 1998 (minus interior) and spent a small fortune on it in the process(!) - I repainted it Signal Red rather than it's original Royal Blue, and in hindsight it was a decision I regretted.

 

SUV 407F had previously belonged to two club members; Robin Powell, who I believe bought it new and Peter Haynes (PeterH) who pretty much drove it until rust held the winning hand.

 

If I remember correctly it was for sale in November 2006 (£15,500) and I last heard about SUV 407F when the car was seen at Brooklands in April 2007 where the radiator had boiled over - it would be nice to know if current owner is a TRR and/or Forum member as I have some photos he/she may like - some below:
