Since I published this article I have learned that while this Grifo was in South Africa, Mike Hailwood had an unfortunate high speed encounter with a water buffalo.
The result for the Grifo is shown in the pictures below.

This car has been completely restored to near new condition according to the Coys description, however, they do not mention this accident. They do mention the number plate "17241 EE" which is just visible in these pictures above.
