I wanted to sprint- etc. so took an old classic just for fun! I was in contact with Peter Radnall who saw the chassis etc. He was amazed that there was still one in UK. The car itself I found out was owned first by David Boler. I still dream of rebuilding it so therefore not for sale etc. I would add photo if I knew how - I have only just joined.

One car i don`t see mentioned here is the Japperwock, i believe this was built and run by Iain Bracey at hillclimbs in the 1970`s? Memory is a bit hazy but did it have a pair of JAP motorbike engines (hence the name). Any info on it would be appreciated.
