Ginetta G11 Coupe

The Ginetta G11 Coupe was the hardtop version of the G11, the softer road going derivative of the Ginetta G10 that the company developed during 1965, mainly for the British market. The Ginetta Owners Club says the chassis matched the G10 except for Triumph front suspension in place of Ginetta's own fabricated layout and a solid MGB axle on trailing arms with drum rear brakes at the back, while the engine and gearbox were also from the MGB. The coupe was launched at the 1966 Racing Car Show and another hardtop was shown there in 1967. The club calls these comfortable GT cars that deserved to sell well, but supply difficulties, particularly with the MGB doors, meant production never really got underway, and it lists a production of 2 cars. The Ginetta Owners Club of Switzerland dates the car to 1966 and lists an 1800 cc BMC B series engine.
