That's not a TVR Griffin, it's a Griffith! I'm fairly sure it's just a typo, but as an American who has great respect for classic British sports cars, I feel the description should be corrected :-)

Yup, thought "Griffith", even looked at the entry list to double check... typed Griffin. Perhaps we're just hankering after a Vauxhall 🤔

I think that the origin of the name was when an American, called Jack Griffith, decided to put a V8 in the car, various issues meant that there were not many. So much as an AC Cobra started life as another AC I think that it is probably OK to call it a TVR Griffith (The first of two and a half)

@@benmarr352 Yes, the story I heard was that Mr. Griffith and Mr. Shelby were drinking, and having the kind of lively discussion you get when two car guys are drinking, and Mr. Griffith made a bet that he could make a car from his dealership as fast as a Cobra. With the advent of daylight and sobriety, Mr. Griffith found the Ford V8 fit the TVR frame surprisingly well.

They _sound_ wonderful - not singing or bellowing, but snarling - but there's plenty of other cars getting around there, more visually attractive than either of these. The Griffith is a cute little button of a car. The Cobra? It's a mutant: once a polite and well proportioned device, but it was modified into a grimly determined and bulging monster.

If the cobra is a 289, they're powered by the same engine, but the Griff is paper thin in comparison

The TVR & Cobra have the same engines, however the TVR has the edge because it's about 500 pounds lighter than the Cobra. Also driving skill & ability are major factors.
