Dear All

Very sad day!

My T350 Chimaera has now gone to a new home in Germany.

Stephan as promised to look after my car and by the sound of it he has already started to have some fun!

The new project Griff will be complete by March 2009.


Regards

Goose

There seems to be a market for these cars in mainland Europe - mine went to Austria ;( but it too seems to be having fun.

Why on earth did you sell when the light conversion was only completed mere weeks ago? confused

Dear All

Have had my current Chimaera three years and completed the T350 conversion almost two years ago eek

I loved owning and restoring my chimaera, however decided that I wanted to do something even more Mad.

Started speaking to Ian at Sportmotive again last year which is always a bad idea as he gets me to spend lots of money. But being honest I am a pushover for anything different and it didn’t take much persuasion to get me interested in the new project.

Hence Ian has started work on a full restoration project for me on a Griff which will include it running an LS1 5.7 litre.

This project will not be cheap hence Chimaera had to go to pay for this.

A very sad day but eventually I will have a nice car!

Just a headlight conversion which is lifted from the TVR T350. Look at Argooses' profile.

Hi Nick,

the Chimaera is doing fine after using it nearly every day since I bought it from you in July07. Just now I am giving it a new 500 clutch from TVR power, several oil seals, Ferodo racing brake pads, 12 k servicing and minor additional adjustments and replacements.

It became my car number one I fell in love with!
