Spotted this beauty outside of Founders Brewing Co. in Grand Rapids, MI tonight. I have not seen it around before and could not locate the owner despite asking around a bit. Not sure of the exact model, but it is the first classic TVR I have seen in person. Can you help me identify? I want to say it is the "M".
(P.S. Sorry about the poor photo quality. Night and cell phone camera.)

Where is Founders Brewing Co? Grew up there, but have not lived there for 25-30 years. Looks like close to downtown? (Ha, last brewery I remember was the closed Fox Brewing Co, on Michigan Ave. where the overpass for Michigan over Division St, is now.) Yeah, that was a long time ago. Graduated Ottawa Hills HS in 1970. Is that still there?
Yes, I am still pretty coherent and can answer questions and understand answers.

Founders is on Grandville on the southern end of downtown along with about 5 other breweries downtown. Ottawa Hills is still here too

It is indeed an M-Series car, making it from the 1970s IIRC. Styling-wise it's like a Grantura/Griffith that's actually human-sized.
Nice spot! The TVRs I see are all from within the last 20 years or so.
