I always like them and wanted one for the longest time, but I think typical self-proclaimed automotive critic considers them to be one of the ugliest cars of all time.

Cannot remember what a Griffith looks like.
How about a Lister-Jaguar or Lister-Corvette? Those are awesome cars.

The 200 looks like an Aston Martin DB5 and a Alfa Romeo Spyder were left alone in a garage overnight. It's a good looking car that sounds mean.

Meat.

I owned a 200 when it was new. Remember sitting on top of the rear axle, poor air circulation in the interior, smelled the exhaust fumes, short wheebase, rough ride, a crude car that created a lot of memories. I loved that car and wish that I had it back. Keep me informed about this project.... I could be persuaded into another project.

Bruce,
If you had access to one of these to reproduce you could sell a bunch.
With a little tweek on the rear flares and maybe a little on the front you
would have a winner. With all the new small engine technology out there
this thing would be a screamer. Also it gives people that like the 550 spyder
another choice.
