I always say "He who plays with the most Toys wins."

I swore off British cars forever...until this TR8 came along. A barn find with 32k on the clock. This is where I fell in love with the Rover 3.5L all-aluminum V8 that's going into my current project (if I can ever find an end to the rust).


My namesake (Cheapsnake, get it?). Factory Five with 351 Windsor putting out 440HP. Overpowered, stiflingly hot, rides like a skateboard, hurts your ears... I LOVE IT!

COOL Duck! Boy, I still remember the 1st time I touched knee hanging corners. That was a bad ass day!!!

So technically is that a red duck or a white duck???

BTW: Sweet ride

Ohhh...Fuch you George. Careful

Nice find. What's the deal with those external " semaphores " ? Are they just an aftermarket add on light or are they some sort of O.E. euro device ?

Thanks
the "semaphores" is called "mouse ears " in Sweden and are aftermarket they replaced the originals for better visibillity
the reason i have them is that i have converted to 12volt and my semaphores is still 6volt I havent had the time to fix it

Hey Mark

Is that a 1935 Chevy Master Deluxe? (on page 5 posted by marks914)

My dad had one just like it when I was a kid. He bought it for $400, and it was a complete car. I used to drive it around the block, (probably clocked a few hundred miles on the circle where we lived) but never officially got her on the road. I spent many afternoons with my old man tinkering around with it, but it was one of those projects that never quite got finished.

He sold it to a guy that let it rot next to his house for too many years. F-ing tool never moved it after he got it back to his house. It used to kill me to drive by & see it sitting outside deteriorating over the years. God I wish I had bought it back from the a-hole!

I will see if I can find some pictures of it.

Nice to see that there is still one out there getting shown some love. Awesome car!!!!
