Nothing spesh I'd imagine. Its probably something a dealer conjured up to sell some old EF's, hoping it would look like HSV. There were a few cars like that in the early and mid 90's.
The first letter usually stood for either the dealer name or the suburb that the dealer was in. |

fitting in with that theme, it could have been from Titan Ford - i.e. TSV - with the VIN on www.myford.com.au we should be able to find the original dealer where the car was sold from

Is it just me or is that pod 50% useless.. they have a cold air feed going into the end of it.. but it can still and will still suck hot air. Not as bad as a normal pod sucking hot air, but would be worse than a standard air box.

In the 9th pic next to the Ford badge it has Townsend Autos. So i dare say TSV stands for, as damo said Townsend Special Vehicles.
Nothing special about it at all... its only a GLi

we used to do that sort of stuff at New Oak Ford as well, around when the AU's came out, things like rims which were bloody ugly, a crome exhaust tip, spoiler, side skirts and things like that, nothing like those red door handles or the white mudflaps though
