John,

I assume you are considering upgrades for a TD so you wouldn't be 
interested in the potential brake and steering upgrades for a TC. 

There are all sorts of mods out there.  You have mentioned some of the 
biggest without going over the top.  I've actually seen a couple of TDs 
with small block Chevy engines! 

Some things to consider:

Upgraded lights
Alternator (I've never seen it done on a TD due to the tach drive off of 
the generator, but I suspect someone has done it.)
Bucket seats
Coil over front shocks (more common on MGB)
Rear tube shocks

Of course, the Originalitly Police will frown on all of these.

But then I've often thought about a TC based street rod with a V8, cycle 
fenders and such. 

Day dream on,
Charles Hill
