Hi All,
I have had this rusty rolling chassis for some ten months and have stripped everything off and am now starting on the chassis. I have also obtained a JAP 500 motor and have suitable Norton boxes / clutches on the shelf.
I have certainly spent as much time on the 'phone & computer as I have in the workshop trying to find its history.
It could well be the ex Alex McGlashan or Rob Anderson car as it has offside (right) front / rear significant 'in-period' repairs. The original colour was certainly 'Flag Blue'.
The likely owners / drivers were:- 1953 - McGlashan / Anderson, Swan, Goff Burnard / Horseman, Peter Simpson, Peter Howarth. c1960/62 - Howarth was probably the last to use the car competitively......So is there anyone out there that has access to any information that could help with this cars history?.......Clive
PS; when I work out how to add pictures I will do so as I will be 82 soon!
