Hello all, im an Aussie living in Japan.

I currently own an FD Rx7 which i have just exported back to Aus, and i would like to get a TVR next. Im looking around for a Griffth, but unfortunately, there arent many around in Japan, that or people dont like parting with them. I will also settle for a Chimaera which are a little more common.

One question, did the closed headlights appear in the last model of Chimaeras? And if so, is it possible to replicate the look with the open headlights by attaching a glass cover?

The headlighs im talking about look like this



Thanks

William

They did do the last Chims with closed headlights and that is a Chimaera. Or am I missing something ?
