Andy 43 or anyone with a early griff in the blackpool northwest area. The blackpool RO John Mleczek is looking for early griffs for a photo shoot at the factory in blackpool. If you are interested give him a ring, phone number is in the sprint mag, or phone, e mail myself....

I have a 92 4.3 pre-cat. So would also be interested if the dates work for me.

Edited to say: I don't live in the North West but have family up there so it's not a problem to visit.

If you are talking about the History of the Griffith coffe table style book being written by Roger Shackleton? Then yes, I think I am already in it. Rich...

B**ger, I'm up in Manchester the following week so can't do it (the missus would kill me for being away 2 weekends on the trot) I'm afraid. Damn, damn, damn.
I'm about 5 hours from Blackpool normally so can't really do it in a day. Sorry I can't help.

I own a pre-cat '92 Griff 400, have to check the diary ref the picture shoot. A good opportunity to photograph examples must surely be the Factory 'Going Home' weekend ?? I live in Newbury and therefore journeys involving many litres of Optimax need authority at the highest level....(Mainly 'cos that person loves driving it as much as I do - though she's not as quick of course....!)

REQUEST: I'm trying to buy a pair of rear Griff 500 seven spoke alloys for track days etc. Got the fronts, now just need the rear. Appreciate their like 'hen's teeth' but thought it worth a try....cash waiting.

Hi, I have just this Thursday bought myself a 1992 Imperial Blue/Magnolia Precat Griff 4.0 and live in Manchester yet lodge during the week in Blackpool 5 mins from the factory, so I would be very happy if I could bring mine along to this! Thanks - Matt.

We heard you the first time. Welcome to another convert. Unfortunately I live across the Irish Sea so can't bring my '92 4.3 to the photo-shoot.

Only just read this - its been too sunny to sit at a computer for too long... unlucky - I'm abroad 22-29th of May so can anybody else do it?? - see offers above!
A shame as it would be nice to have been famous!

Just spotted this one. Does the number plate have to reflect the year (e.g. J or K) - serious question as I have a 92 4.3 Pre Cat (Rosso Red - should be in May's Sprint), but it has a G plate with a TVR number.

Not in Blackpool area (live in Worcestershire) but have TVR can travel!!
