Hi folks,

After a lot of reading it looks like the Leven half hood for a Griff or Chimaera is something I'd like to add to the car.

I believe the company voluntarily wound up end of last year, sadly - so looking for anyone willing to part with one second hand. Let me know!

Thanks,

James

I think I have one of those in the cellar. I sold the car about 6 years ago!
From memory the tab that fixes into the boot was coming unstitched and I intended to restitch it and sell it. Never finished it!

More than happy to have a look and offer on it chap. If you’re happy to chat, I could give you a call/email to discuss.

Hoping you've spotted my PM, Andy - cheers!

Not a clue Mike, I'm afraid. Hoping Andy comes back to me re the one that needs fixing. Haven't seen any on eBay or the classifieds but then I've only recently started the search.

I have one in a pile of spares that came with my Griffith last year. Need to clean it up and check it's all in good order before determining a price for it, but think in good condition they go for £250-£300?

A hood cover for an MX5 fits pretty well

Could well be Mike. Let me know if you do let it go.

I believe so Phil. I’d like to try both.

If it’s the outdoor hood cover, absolutely. Can’t quite tell from the label? Perhaps you could message me with more photos? Thank you!

Ah you know what manufacturers of TVR parts are like - that could mean it's actually a seat cover wink
