TVR Griffith 400

It was the successor to the TVR Griffith 200, featuring improved cooling via a larger radiator with twin electric fans, redesigned rear suspension, and a redesigned rear with better visibility and the round taillights sourced from the Ford Cortina Mark I.

As the Series 400 cars were being produced in early 1965, the entire east coast of the US was crippled by a prolonged dock strike.

Jack Griffith attempted to bring his car to the public by having these bodies airlifted across the Atlantic, before the venture collapsed.

The remaining Intermeccanica cars were imported to the US by Steve Wilder, where they were assembled by Holman-Moody and sold as the Omega.

With only 59 copies of the 400 and 10 600s off the assembly line at the Griffith factory in Plainview, Long Island, N.Y, USA, the company was dissolved.
