i think im going to be sick !

Better done than most of the ones I've seen.

Thats not too bad, pity the TR7 under there will have been pretty rotten, unless it was the exception.

I was involved with a TR8 conversion many years ago, on a 5 year old car, and it was pretty ropey then, drove well though for 1981.

Don't like the red interior
But it could be a bit of fun with a V8 in it.

My mate used to own a TR7 with a v8 and it was a great car.

better still if he took the badges of and called it what it is.

As Tr7 with body kit goes, it looks ok


nick205 - 13/3/09 at 02:11 PM

why...

...make an ugly car uglier?


001Ben - 13/3/09 at 02:11 PM

what a pile of rubbish , it looks stupid IMHO of course


Mr Whippy - 13/3/09 at 02:17 PM

From the side it’s a bit short looking?

would be convincing if you'd never seen the real thing and then only in that you’d think…Damn that’s one ugly Ferrari!!

This is the sort of thing that gives kit cars a bad name.

I like how the auction says "no time wasters". Evidently, cueballkid0 is incapable of appreciating the irony of this statement.

When you look at the comparison the differences are obvious....

The TR7 version picture was taken in the Winter

The Ferrari picture was taken in the Summer....

The leaves on the trees give it away...

the austin Allegro door handles totally spoil it for me, they look too tacky


owelly - 13/3/09 at 02:45 PM

I like it!! But I'd take a set of mounds of it and build it around something less 1980's BL based!!

Is it not F40??

Liam - 13/3/09 at 06:42 PM

Come on Whippy - at least post a pic of a real TR40!



Can't decide whether I hate that more or the TR-rossa Mr H has dug up. Still at least both are better than that Enzo 'replica' somebody found a while ago. <<shudder>>


bob - 13/3/09 at 06:56 PM

You think those are bad, i have the missfortune of seeing a capri with what was aledged to be an aston martin body kit on.

I still wake up in the middle of the night sometimes thinking it was a bad dream, and this was over 10 years ago.


meany - 13/3/09 at 07:11 PM

A lot more convincing than the post subject, shame the wheels don't fill the arches.


gazza285 - 13/3/09 at 10:51 PM

Don't ask me why????
