Impossible...IMO

My great Uncle used to work for Rolls Royce in Crewe after the war until the early 80s. He used to recount a story where they had a prototype with a Grill that was only 12 inches deep. Unfortunately no pictures exist - so it could be complete hogwash. Personally I'd love to see such a car.
