I started working on a new roof based on the MG TF design and bought an articulated MG hood frame. This hood was never completed but several frames and MG vinyl roof panels which were to be used as guides are included. The sidescreens also need to be designed and fabricated, preliminary designs and parts are included.

This car was completed mechanically prior to being MOTd in March 1994 and was a lot of fun to drive with a lot of engine and a low bodyweight.
This would be a great project for someone to service the engine, after so long without use, and finish the hood and sidescreens.
Alternatively, for anyone proposing to start a new kit car project, the major components – drivetrain, suspension/ steering, wheels and electrics could be removed from this car and used for the new project, at low cost for high grade components.
