Graham J Posted October 1, 2020 Report Share Posted October 1, 2020 to each their own...but not loving the wheel flairs. Well presented though. The TR2 looks great! Graham Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ralph Whitaker Posted October 3, 2020 Report Share Posted October 3, 2020 Like the walnut dash and glovebox lid, looks classy. Not so sure about the flared arches. Ralph Quote Link to post Share on other sites

foster461 Posted October 3, 2020 Report Share Posted October 3, 2020 I like it, Nicely done. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MilesA Posted October 3, 2020 Report Share Posted October 3, 2020 Agree very nicely done (although not for the purists). I presume the side vents are decorative only. Miles Quote Link to post Share on other sites

MilesA Posted October 4, 2020 Report Share Posted October 4, 2020 I love a louvre too! When researching engine heat reduction on my 3A, I discovered that certain MGAs had louvres on the inside of the wheel front arches to help vent hot air air from the engine bay. The 'go faster' 4s have working side vents I think. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

May even lower under-bonnet temperature Bit of fabrication for tubes, hack holes in the inner wings and louvre the outer fender. Jobs a good'n Peter W Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The 'go faster' 4s have working side vents I think. As does my Vitesse. Such a big lump of cast iron squeezed in at the front with very little room around it needs all the help it can get. Under wheel arches is a low pressure area and sucks the hot air out, unfortunately this only happens when on the move and doesn`t stop it overheating in traffic. Ralph.
