  Found existing installation: urllib3 1.7.1
Cannot uninstall 'urllib3'. It is a distutils installed project and thus we cannot accurately determine which files belong to it which would lead to only a partial uninstall.

I do have grip running on another machine running the same OS that was done a while back (earlier this year). The version of pip on that machine is 9.0.2 I had some issues with the install on that machine as well but after installing a few additional packages are recommended by openSSL it did install. On this machine, I've not been able to install it. I'm out of ideas.

Nevermind, I got it working. On linux mint 17.3 it is best to install grip using "sudo -H pip install grip" using the default installed pip. All is ok now.
