Hi John. Love your blog. Some more drivers from my 1970 to 90 Auto Action collection - Ross Coleman, Barry Campbell, Barry Main, Ron McPherson, Doug Seath, Ross Richmond-Smith. Thanks to Pete G for shots of B8/57 in blue. I always wondered about the blue overspray on parts of the chassis. Regards to all. Gary Allen.
Well, Gary, now you're adding some drivers of Bolwells other than Nagaris. I hadn't managed to get around to them yet. In Mk.7s, how about Ken Stratton, Murray Willmott, Malcolm Haskett, John Szabo, Frank Rushton, Matt Pintar. The Mk.5 of Bruno Carosi. Mk.4s of Brian Whellan, Peter Mahoney,Ray Johnstone. Then there's Alan Newton, John White, Ken Messenger, Trevor Lambert in the SR6. What about all those West Aussies in the Round -The-Houses and John Davies in the Speed-On-Tweed. I bet we could find 20 more. Gary you might have started something here. I hope so.
