Does anyone out there have any information concerning kit cars that would fit on an lbc frame? I am thinking specifically of tr-4 and possibly tr-6. I had even thought of comming up with a home made

Weren't TVR available in kit form? Perhaps you can adapt one of their bodies to your frame. Or excercise your artistic licence and create a car out of fiberglass... Then, there's also Michelotti's pr

Let me expand Gary's original question. Add to that the Spitgire/GT6 Frame as well. I had an idea of doing such a project earlier, but could not find any kits that comply. I'm anxious to hear if any

There are quite a few models available here in the U.K, if you read the specials register bit in the T.S.S.C mag you can see some. Sad thing is that you end up losing a perfectly decent REAL sports

Johnny, The thought wasn't to break up a perfectly good sports car, but to use the left over parts from a broken up one that wasn't so "perfectly good". I ended up with a couple of good frames and ru

The prototype was a TR3 chassis with what looks like a cross between the Herald and the TR4 on it. The caption was "Michelotti's first TR essay" (or words to that effect) The book that I saw it in wa

If I recall (going back thirty years now), a couple of the old Kellison kits were adaptable to TR frames. -- My other Triumph doesn't run, either....
