I feared that might be the case. Must be ten years or more since I last saw him. He was up at Honester spectating when I ran into him. First time off the island in ten years. I used to hang around his garage when I was about 15/16 years old.Round where I lived was a hotbed of enthusiasts so I grew up with people who owned various vintage cars.Pretty sure that the car in the photo is the same one that I remember. During the rebuild it acquired twin remote float Amals andthe rear suspension sported shakles to drop the chassis with radius arms above the chassis back to the original spring pin. Often wondered what happened to it as I lost track when I went off to uni. If you do happen to see him again remember me to him and tell him I'd love to hear from him. Regards John Blincoe.
