Not sure. The last time I saw it was at Spa in 2004.

That must be the car that was renovated by Chris Randall as that was a genuine Luigi car that finished 3rd in the Spa 24 hours I believe. I remember seeing it and having a sit in at his workshop in Newcastle a few years back. I think his original plan was renovate it to bring it out in the ModProds but when finished someone made him an offer he could not refuse and he told me 'Sod that I ain't charging around with you lot in that if it is worth £xxxxx '! (Or words to that effect)

I did a painting of this car (The UFO Luigi BMW) for it's original driver, Pierre Deudonniere. I think I have a photo of it burried amongst the rubbish in my loft. If I can find it I will post a copy.

I used to do a lot for Val Adaway and the Silverstone Lady Marshalls for use as prizes in the late 70's. Last edited by John Turner; 13 Feb 2006 at 09:26. |

I like the shots of the CSL, one of my all time favorite cars.
Here are a couple more of mine taken last year at Goodwood. Mustang A couple of famous e types (or at least there cousins) HMW |

I stopped doing the pictures for Val when I went to work in Germany and was racing instead of Marshalling. I even got a 'Dish of the Day' myself but I think that was favouritism! Great pictures - keep them coming |

Picture 2 is of ERA R3A with AJM1 to the left. Looks like Silverstone to me Picture 3 the car with the moody paint job is a McLaren M10B which used to be sprinted by Simon Riley. The livery was Monsieur Houbigant eau de cologne! Picture 6 is of the Gillies Riley team with l to r 9hp Treen, Brooke Special, 6 cylinder Treen, 12/4 special. Picture 8 is the Lola Mk6 GT when owned by Paul Halfpenny Picture 11 is Nick Mason's Bugatti T35B I can identify most of the others but not with any great degree of accuracy |

I'll have a crack at no.9. I'm pretty certain that is a March 702 currently belonging to Michael Scott. I admired this car at Cadwell earlier last year (it was still carrying the no.44) and asked Michael about it. He said that he did still have the winglets that attach to the nosecone but that they were not allowed in the HSCC class (E4?) that he was competing in that day. I'm not certain where Andrew's photo was taken, however!
In fact, I've just found a picture I took at the Cadwell meeting mentioned above. I rather like the balaclava and gloves awaiting further use! Last edited by John Turner; 12 Feb 2006 at 09:45. Reason: Adding picture and further comment! |

Chris's CSL was the real McCoy, beautifully prepared old beastie.
