This Coupe was restored by Andy Spalding in 2010.
Fitted with a 1430cc MED A-Series Engine, strait cut close ratio gears, cross pin diff, coil-overs, adjustable suspension and roll bar It has the works.

See andys-83-coupe-t577.html

The car has just been rolling road tuned at Rawles in Alton (the Healey 3000 specialists).
It produced 90 Hp at the wheels and Rawles estimate this at 120+HP at the flywheel.
Unfortunately after the dyno test, the car now produces a lot of white smoke from the exhaust and will need to be trailered.
It has a MOT until July 2015

Hi.
I don't know what the issue is with the engine. I'm not an engine guy.
I do not know if the clutch has been changed from the spec I posted. I suspect not.
The clutch was no problem for road use...which is all the use I ever gave it.

Hi All
Just seen my old GTM is for sale! By the photos, she still looks in superb condition (pleased to see that she's been looked after)! No seriously, I always said that she is probably the best coupe in the country, the rebuild being absolutely stunning and was sad to have to sell the car. The amount of money and time that has been spent on this car to get it to such a high spec - Hats off to Andy - some lucky person's in for a treat!! Long live my old coupe !! Hope it goes to someone on the Forum well have to wait and see.
