griff speed six ?????

[mikel003003]

hello I'm visiting from the s forum. I got a nice shining tvr book for my birthday and was wondering if anyone knows about or even owns a griffith speedsix ? looks simalar but with one piece bonnet and indicators inside the perspex headlight protectors, very very sexy.......

It didn't make it past the proto type IIRC..

I've only ever seen pics of a pale yellow one..... last seen in a corner of the factory yard IIRC

[yellowgriff]

Shirley only a matter of time before someone makes a replica of it?

Looks nice enough to me, IIRC the interior was pretty special too.

That's the nice version. The motorshow one was this:





...which didn't work as well for me.

Linky.

Think the fronts very nice,,, rear of the car minging

[LordGrover]

I like the first's rear (ooer missus) but the opening looks too narrow - impractical.

X 2,,, top rear would be very nice

would love to see a pic of the engine, its quite a tall engine, so fitting it in must have been interesting.

It was chain sawed to pieces . . .

Have always said if I had money to burn that's the re-build I would do . . . Only real issue for me is that engine.

Interior was more Cerberra like as well.

There's another version of that as well with a sweeping centre concole like the Cerb . .

It must be possible if someone wants to do it one day... I was up at Power the other week and saw a Chim with a Speed Six in and it looked like that fit pretty well! Apparently the owner wanted his favorite engine in his favorite car after owning just about all of them at one time or another!

[DonkeyApple]

That's a good looking car strangely, although a massive fan of straight 6 engines it feels odd to me to have anything other than a v8 in a griff.

The interior shot is lovely.

I suspect that the steeper angle of the windshields on these cars would look dated in modern terms but that would still be a stunning car to roll out with a big engine and all the modern mechanical bits.

A few specials for £100k anyone?
