Apologies if any of these have been seen before, but in the early days of posting, I didn't keep a check on what I had uploaded. Now I do!
1966 RCS - my favourite of all the Mini based cars. Unipower GT.
1970 - I may well have posted this before. "Spotty Smith's" TVR.
1980 Curborough. There is a double NZ connection here. Arthur Nash told me that he was distantly related to NZ's Walter Nash. Arthur built the 1300cc Mini engine that I brought to NZ that ended up in Mike Lucas's Mini. I never got the chance to run the engine at anything other than running in levels, but when Arthur rebuilt my class winning engine, (that I had bought second-hand), it had broken rings and other issues. Amazed that I had done so well with it, including the first sub 40 second run in that hotly contested up to 1300cc road modified class at Curborough.
By the time it made it into Mike's car, virtually unused, the core plugs had rusted through... Sorry Mike.
