Hi Roger, we saw George's TF at Stoneleigh ... and the price tag! It was a nice car though, as it should be for that money, but I would have expected it to have the correct engine It's not showing on his, or Peter's, website so perhaps he got his asking price.

hi Tweed - several years ago, the late Ray Sales did a roaring trade in RHD racks, mainly for the vast numbers of TDs brought over from the States. I don't know who is making them now, but I would recommend that he goes to somebody reputable such as Brown & Gammons. They probably have the parts and could carry out ther work.
Alteratively he could ask George Edney whether his 1500 TF which was displayed at Stoneleigh (with a 46K price tag...) is still available. It has a rebuilt engine, but not a genuine XPEG, probably a bored & stroked XPAG. Actually therte have been several 1500 TFs advertised recently: just keep watching all the classified ads.

Hi all, my bro-in-law has had a Frog-Eye Sprite for many years, but he and his wife are now finding it a bit uncomfortable on longer trips, so he's after a 1500 XPEG TF. RHD models don't come up for sale very often, not here in the UK anyway, but there a few for sale in Europe ... only problem is they are left-hookers. Has anyone converted a LHD TF to RHD, or if it was done professionally, what did it cost and who did the work. Thanks in advance. TweedTC 0632 Cambridge UK
