    Huxford Anglia

    Think that the red fastback was Gary Huxford's. He was a member of the "Miramar Racing Team" together with Alex Wilson in his hybird 105E/100E that he built a replica of. These guys used to compete at Palmer Head, then drive their cars home on the road.
    The other memeber of the team was Trevor Eve in his blue 1650cc 105E that I recall was fastbacked. I recall John Mines of Morris Ford, Bambina Mid Cooper S and JRM fame built the car that was unfortunately wrecked when it came away from its A Frame. Will post a picture of the car which I think is at Alexander Road Hill Climb Wellington.

    Guys, can you ID the #89 and #92 Breadvans in this link? http://www.anglia-models.co.uk/saloon-photor43.htm

    Is the 92 car the Huxford version?

    We need to look further into this. If the #89 car is ex Simpson, then this car won the 1966 NZ Saloon Car Championship.

    Therewas an a letter to the editor in Driver Magazine a while back submitted by Gary Lang. Think he said he sold the car to the Goodlass family

    John Mines is still active and racing - would it be possible for someone to ask him if he would be interested in joining this site ?
