Ginetta G15 Series 3

Automobiles

The Ginetta G15 Series 3 was the third production series of the Ginetta G15, launched at the October 1970 Motor Show. The Ginetta Owners Club says that by the summer of 1970 the G15 was a huge success for the company, with production moving towards two cars a week from the small Witham factory and a waiting list of twelve weeks and rising. The moulds were wearing out and needed replacing, so Ginetta used the chance to make improvements. The most obvious were larger side windows, a radiator housing built into the main mould with a revised air intake, a front bumper split in two halves with a moulding between them, and a revised dashboard with space for a radio. Apart from technical changes to the front brakes at the start of 1972, the Series 3 stayed relatively unchanged until July 1972. The club lists production at approximately 245 cars.
