Am really looking forward to this thread, as are I hope most of the folk who subscribe to this forum. George was a larger than life character, right up there with Ron Roycroft, although I dont think George was QUITE as polished a driver as Ron. They both had a similar attitude to how their cars looked.....pretty rough I think would be a fair assessment, but who cares so long as they did the business, and they certainly did that, and were entertaining to watch......they put a smile on your face. I'm going to ask a stupid question here but I'm serious......those BIG Ardun heads...were they an OHV conversion of the side-valve V8? 'Go and stand in the corner'!!
