According to the owner it's a BTR from a "TVR Tuscan S". Driveshafts are also supposed to be Tuscan.

Does anyone know the history of this car, did it start out as a Griffith or Grantura.

Rob
This car is a Griffith. Another forum indicated that a gentleman by the name of Tony Cerrulli ran this Griffith out of Stamford, Connecticut.

Interesting, a tail mounted spare. I wonder whether that was a factory experiment or a user fitment

that car is for sale on the moment, and the owner asks himself in the ad that there must be something to find about this car because of that spare wheel fitments on the back, I think I remember seeing a grantura with a spare wheel on the back, but could not find it in a quick search online.
Maybe I've seen it in one of the TVR books I wonder, did not look yet, to many TVR books here.
