finally own a 164 TE
picking her up this weekend previous owner bought it 20 years ago and stored it with ideas of using it to tow his 242 race car the project was never started and the car sat until i enquired after it the price he asked for it was very reasonable in fact i suspect a new tyre for it will cost me more will be extracting it from its hed this weekend and photos will be taken as the project happens. its a 1974TE model code 115 paint. metallic blue/green

Welcome to our Forums - beat you this time, johnh!
I love the blue/green all British 164TE's were - it was the colour that attracted me to mine, although I currently drive an insipid pale blue 164E. One day my TE will be on the road again.... When mine was last on the road (about 3 years ago) it was reputed to be the only one currently legal. However last year we met a guy whilst on the VOC stand at the Beaulieu spring autojumble who has two (I think he said!), and of course there's Marks immaculate one that was at the NEC last December, so they are almost common now..... (joking of course!). Perhaps we ought to do a survey of the number of known 142s now: I have a blue '68 one and had a yellow one that has moved twice since me but I know its current owner. Any more over here? Paul |
