Family Tree

Here's an email from Tony B in Canberra :-

Hi

Bolly Blog is bringing out a wealth of information on racing drivers etc but not so much on individual cars.

How about setting up a family tree by Chassis number with the orig purchaser and tracing the vehicle's history to today. This may discover some great cars and perhaps a few that have been cremated or inturned.

I notice the front cover of Just Cars lists a monster V8 Mk7 racing car for sale - a start for that car at least.

The blog should be sufficient to get it rolling and may give the blog a bit of a lift - I noticed it slowed down a little after the change.

Cheers

Tony

I'm not sure what the change was, but regarding the family tree, I do know that there are lots of people around the place that read the blog and are hungry for information and would be in agreement with your plan. It's not something I could do alone, mainly because of my limited information, but there are many Bolwell experts out there that could help. What do others think? Some discussion would be lovely. For those who have not made comments on this blog before, it's simple, just click on the word "comments" below and you're in. I am happy to co-ordinate it through this blog. It would be a big task though. Rome wasn't built in a day I'm told.

Regarding the "monster V8 Mk7 racing car", I agree, it has quite a history, right from its inception when it was built by Graeme Docker as a dedicated Group A sports racer all those years ago.
