412 virtues

[lansdownplace]

All the V8 Bristols look a bit tall from the front because they are
relatively narrow and sit on the deep chassis, canting the windows
in, raking the windscreen back, dropping the roof line by a couple
of inches and dropping the seats to compensate for the lost headroom
would probably deal with this. Flaring the rear out would help the
look of the overall stance. The Beaufort has a different screen
which is much more raked back.

Interesting proposition that the 412 could form the basis for a new
Blenheim. Perhaps it could sit between the the Blenheim and the
Fighter as a compromise option between comfort an out and out supercar.
