1985 TVR 280i Fuel Injection Convertible Roadster unrestored Sportscar

Vehicle Description

This 1985 TVR 280i was in storage since 1999. In garage storage on jack stands, recently saw the light of day in 2024. Fuel was drained during storage. 2 original tires held air, and two used takeoff tires have been mounted to allow it to roll around. This vehicle spent its lifetime in dry Texas, until found and brought to Oklahoma earlier this year. Shoulder surgery prohibits me from restoring this unique British roadster.

Note: I have not tried to start or "crank over" the engine with the starter. Because, It would need a maintenance prior to that. New spark plugs, new wires, fresh oil and oil filter, would be what I would do before any attempt to run. Possible the fuel pump. Engine is free. Clutch feels fine. Thanks for all the questions!
