malcolm Posted December 9, 2005 Report Share Posted December 9, 2005 I got the money through today (long story) and picked up my new TR7 V8 DHC. What a car! Twin pipes with no centre silencers, the smile that short journey put on my face will last all weekend Malcolm. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

robgeev Posted December 9, 2005 Report Share Posted December 9, 2005 It grieves me to say this Malc, but this car looks really nice, well done-half converted me. Excellent boot badge too.Standard issue? Rob. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cinnobar Posted December 9, 2005 Report Share Posted December 9, 2005 Malc, same system as mine, my neighbours all absolutely love it! They wave when I leave at around 05:30 in th morning.... Jim Quote Link to post Share on other sites
malcolm Posted December 10, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2005 It's a really decent car. V8 conversion and structural work by Peter Vernon (built like a brick outhouse) then finishing touches and 'bling' by Graham and Michael Cooling (very smart). This sort of car really appeals to the sort of younger retro-classic enthusiasts we need to get hooked on old cars. Once we have them in the club you can badger them about our history and the earlier TRs. It worked on me :cool: The boot badges, instruments and interior are all custom designed by the Coolings' BTW Malcolm. ps. I've already really hacked off my neighbours with the V8 track car and previous V8 DHC (both with loud single bore systems) so I'm sure they will be delighted to listen to this one too....

Guest driftaround Posted December 10, 2005 Report Share Posted December 10, 2005 hiya. That car is fabulous. For me, it's the little touches that make all of the difference. Have the Coolings got a web site m8?? Ian Quote Link to post Share on other sites
