With regard to Ken's idea of a list of improvements without thought of
keeping originality here is my two pennyworth for a TR4A. (also not taking
into account availability of parts for this model)

1  Fit a brake servo and rear disc brakes (Dolomite Sprint)
2  Junk the rear shocks and fit Bilstein gas filled telescopic shocks all
round.
3  Fit anti-roll bars front and rear.
4  Fit anti tramp bars and panhard rod to rear live axle.
5  Fit rollover bar
6  Fit high speed low profile tyres and mag alloy wheels
7  Fit rally bucket seats and four point seat belts.
8  Throw out the tractor engine and fit at least a 300bhp Rover/Buick V8
engine and 5 speed gearbox.
9  Fit high power sound system to drown out the rattles and noise
10 Fit a power soft top (it rains a lot in UK)
