    Cobra with a hard top & I'd guess that French blue oddity is a Dyna Panhard of some kind.

    Great vids Steve. :D

    I thought Cobra at first but the top looked wrong to me. Guess I'm used to this type.

    [​IMG]

    ...rather than this one (which I prefer).



    That second version, and the one in the video, look sort of like a cross between a regular convertible Cobra and a Cheetah (bel LeMansherewecome.jpg ow)...which is what threw me off.

    Yes that hardtop does have a Cheetah look to it. That hard top on the Cobra is popular in Europe.

    Speaking of Europe & cool car stuff Goodwood is on Speed tonight me thinks. Check your local listings & set the DVR. :D

    I wonder why I never think of TVR unless I see one on Top Gear. I don't think I've ever seen one in person and I don't think I've heard a friend or acquaintance even mention TVR, ever...suppose that could have something to do with it.

    They're gone for good now but here's an Old Top Gear tribute from the 50th anniversary of the company.

    When I was a pup there was a local guy that used to run a TVR Griffith in gymkhanas, long before they changed the name to auto x. Loved that thing, a real monster. All other TVR's just didn't measure up in my eyes.

    Those were good videos, but stopped short of TVR being bought by a Russian kid with lots of money & then going belly up. RIP TVR.
