Restoration of a 1984 280i "Barn Find"

---

Classic Motor Works recently acquired a "barn find"  1984 TVR Tasmin/280i in north Georgia.  This car, #BDH1160, was built by TVR Engineering Ltd. June 17, 1984 and was assigned Works Order # 84-0160.  It was finished in White with red interior and a black top.  The car has spent its life in Georgia and had been stored in a weathertight barn for the past five years.

We will be chronicling the refurbishment of this car over the next year including what parts from the Classic Motor Works inventory we use as part of that process, with periodic updates so you can see the progress on the car.

We hope you will enjoy this process as it occurs.
