I agree with you Steve, this is the logical thought. But when I wrote a story on Jack Nazer's career a few years ago, I remember him telling me that he prepared his fast back Anglia for the 1965-66 season but only ran the Paritutu meeting in Nov 1965. Funds apparently did not allow him to contest any other meetings that season. The car is in almost the same colours and logos as it appeared the following season when he was a major contender for the last Allcomer's title in 1966-67. He finished second to Robbie Francevic's Custaxie and ahead of Paul Fahey's Shelby Mustang in Group 2 spec that season who finished third.
