TVR's are kinda neat. My brother in law has two early 70's 2500M's. One is totally stock and driven all summer, the under is undergoing major surgery. We removed the stock Triumph I-6 motor and trans in favor of a Ford 2.3L turbo, T-5 trans and SVT Mustang rear diff. We are working on mating everything up and just recently finished brake/hub adapters to run the SVT hubs and brakes in the rear using narrowed SVT half shafts. We'll be using SVT fron brakes as well. I like the cars but I don't like driving them. They have huge trans tunnels and cramped footwells. Never seen a new one in person but I did like the car in the movie Swordfish.
