    That does look good. If you are going to modify, may as well do it properly

    Pehaps Terry would be interested, after all the steering wheel is on the correct side for Tenerife and it would cause some interest at the next Los Christianos Classic Car show

      I don't like the concept but you have to give him a A for the execution, 300bhp in a Stag, love to try that up Presscot. Martin.

        Does look nice but I'm afraid the Spanish Authorities will only allow you to Import & locally Register a car if it's exactly as it was made - which is why they would never allow a Rover or Ford engined Stag to have a Spanish registration.

          I like that. I have entertained thoughts about doing something along those lines with a different V8 engine myself: something like a Toyota UF-ZE, a BMW or Jaguar V8 or a Ford or Chevy smallblock. But a slightly tuned TV8 is what I now plan to use.

          But kudos to the vendor! The bonnet scoop is nasty and the decals are not for me but the concept is good, IMHO. :dude:

            Wow I love the look of that car, looks really good in the silver with those wheels and the stance looks perfect.

                I think the neighbours would not be impressed!!!

                Set their car alarm off again the other day backing out of the drive

                I think every alarm in the street would go off with this one...

                Does sound good though...

                  I like it takes me back to my boy racer days

                  The rad looks like it'sbeen moved forward to make extra room, now that isa good idea, has anyone else ever thought of doing a similar thing, would be able to have the electric fan in the preferred sucking position

                    I did!

                    5.0 litre/305ci Rover/TVR V8.

                    With regard to the radiator, I movedit forward well into the front body-work; it required some removal of the panels either side of the existing rad, but allowed me to fit a much larger rad. I'm still using a blower fan which works fine.

                        Delicate cutting with a thin blade on an angle grinder to widen the front panels out to the same width as the chassis rails.

                        This involved relocating the battery to the hood compartment. I made up some metal sections to reinforce the points where metal was removed.

                        The rad was fabricated to suit the dimensions of the orifice left and fits between the chassis rails sitting just in front of the front rail where the old rad was located.

                        I drilled new holes in the front valance and used rubber mounts to fix the bottom of the rad. The top is located using the existing holes in the top rail running across the front of the car to which the bonnet is fixed.
