only reason is that I had a remote control car modeled after this and Ive loved the looks of it since
Triumph stag, 3.0 v8 two speed rear hardtop/convert and a factory roll bar the only thing that sucked parts were super hard to find in the 1980's!

Hell yes Chris, I'll take a Countach any day!
sure, a car with a top speed of 200 mph, heck yeah.
Overall though, if I won the lottery today, I'd be buying a Saleen S7. Or a koening One:1

My brother in law has a brit side to him he has a TVR and a few other obscure brit cars, I think he still has a v8 Capri also, all low miles, he is just now retiring and prob will move from NY to Kentucky so he can afford his dream shop.

I've always liked them. Yes you are correct there are much better built and nicer cars now days, but we were talking about cars from the 80's That was one of my dream cars as a kid..

I raced a TVR. It was in a video game, but still.. I raced one. LOL
I don't think so. Kind of rare even then. You can still find them but parts are ridiculous for them, in the 80's I needed a exhaust it was over 500 then! Just the pipes no mufflers.

Should of used the flex pipe from JC Whitney
He has a Norton Commando still with the plastic on the seat and around 50 miles on it he will not give that one up. He will need a few flatbed semis to move all of his stuff for sure.
I did that on a lot of my cars but this one was to clean, one owner think it had 25 k on it. Sold it for three grand back then when the electrical gremlins started.Should of used the flex pipe from JC Whitney
