I’m going with a spare that will fit in the spare tire
compartment. And we are doing an aluminum center gage cluster
and an aluminum shift knob. I have a friend with machining

<p>While those modifications from stock in the video TR2 are not my
cup of tea, your car, do what looks best to you. </p>
<p>As far as an air dam, might I suggest either a bottom centre
scoop addition or an opening in the lower part of the valence
instead. Or maybe an air dam with a centre air scoop built in. A
lot of the radiator is below the grille opening and it would be
helpful to direct air into the lower radiator rods & fins to
help with cooling. You don't want to block off air going to the
lower part of the radiator. You should be able to find some
pictures of racing TR3s with a horizontal opening cut into the
lower valence for ideas.</p>
