Well, at last a presence at Knebworth!

About 20 cars turned up from a wedge through to the latest Tamora. Oh yes, three nice looking S's. A v8 and two S3 2.9 all looking very smart.
If you have not been to this show you are missing out. there are always lots of interesting cars to look at and perhaps next year we could have a section of the field dedicated to TVR as other clubs do.
What do you think?

Forgive my ignorance but is this a griff with a very badly damaged front end? (as this picture is on the S site!)
Does this front bolt straight on to the griff or are there a lot of mods to do this?

Of course m8 - hence my 'Tusgriff' name!

The owner has had the Griff a long time and likes fiddling (the rear lights are individual round lights set into hand made body recesses too - looks better than the Griff 'conversion' rear light on the final cars)

Sorry to offend by sticking on S Series forum - just answering Knebworth thread before I spotted it in general - thought it was interesting and wanted to share, but I'll go now, sniff,

How the should I know?

The owner wasn't that forthcoming - someone asked if it just bolted straight on and he said yes. But how could it - the screen base/door fronts aren't the same as a Tuscan are they?

Suggest you find owner/someone who knows him, and ask him on here!

Why, are you thinking of creating a Tusc'ess, or jacking in the project for a 'Griff-Nouveau'?

Don't think I'll be taking this one on Kieran, I agree it can't just bolt on, can it. I didn't even notice at the show that it was a griff at the back. wish I'd made a bit more effort to see what had been done.

Be honest, am I the only prat who didn't spot it?
