United States • 3 Oct 2022

Vehicle Details

AI Listing Summary

This 1979 TVR 3000S is a heavily modified example, featuring a 3.8L Chevy V6, 5-speed manual, and numerous performance upgrades including Wilwood brakes and Aldan Eagle coilovers. It presents well with a black repaint and S2000-sourced leather seats, but the true mileage is unknown due to the modifications.

Condition

7

While the car has been refurbished with several modern upgrades, including a replacement chassis, modified suspension, and a newer engine, the mileage is unknown, and the refurbishment quality is based on the seller's description. The media blasting and refinishing of the body, along with the upgraded components, suggest good attention to detail, but without a thorough inspection, it's difficult to assess the overall condition definitively. Therefore, a rating of 'Very Good' seems appropriate.
