This one didn't and apparently it is not unique

The car came from Jersey where cats were not required, so could have been made up of bits and pieces originally.

The car was built in October/November 1993,Griffs were only officially built for export at the time,and for some reason or other,possibly there were no precat front ends available,this on came out of the factory with a 500 front end,and indeed was destined for Jersey.

Looking really good Pete! I watched all the videos back to back, you've been very busy by the looks of it.

For a moment I thought you were gonna start slagging the 450 off!! laugh

It certainly should be quicker by the sounds of it. I look forward to the next update mate.

Speak soon

Jimbo

PS Who actually gives a **** what bonnet it's got on it as long as the car is saved and you're happy?
