Photos of rubber bumpered Tundra MGBGTV8s wanted
Alan McNaughton Gisby posted a message on the V8BB saying "Calling Car numbers: 2128, 2184, 2219, 2240, 2260, 2301, 2371, 2548, 2552, 2611& 2745. My Nightfire Red 2525 car was originally Tundra and I would appreciate any photos of a rubber bumper V8 in Tundra before I consider taking the decision to return to original colour when my car goes through a future refurbishment."
Well in fact 33 rubber bumpered V8s were manufactured at the Abingdon Plant - see the V8 colour/numbers chart in V8NOTE313.
V8 Registrar, Victor Smith, responsed saying "I have been through the copy of the Factory Production Control records made by the late Geoff Allen which I hold and identified the 33 rubber bumpered MGBGTV8s that were produced in Tundra, then checked those cars against the V8 Register database and produced the attached table showing that of the 33 cars only 17 (51.5%) have been registered with the V8 Register. Of those 17 cars, 5 (29%) have had a colour change. In the table I have provided the members' names and where the member has agreed to the release of personal data to fellow members, I have provided the member's email and telephone numbers in the cases where we have them. I hope this table will help your "Tundra Tundra Tundra" search!"
