    Re-reading a copy of NZ Classic Driver from 2015 - Has the article on the Healey - Corvette. There is in Allan Dick's column on the Ian " Red " Dawson Willys - Corvette a photo of the said car running about fourth in the 1965 Matamata Races.
    In the field are ;
    Frank Radisich - Humber - Zephyr [ *** according to the programme the car had a 2553 cc motor which is Ford Zephyr size - not a Jaguar at either 3442 or 3781 cc ] - correction *** ,
    an Anglia white with central stripe,
    [ Allan Dick says possibly Jack Nazer - must look at entry lists - but Race number not visible ],
    Rod Coppins Zephyr - Corvette - in white /blue stripe - Team Molyslip colours
    Red Dawson Willys - Corvette.
    Photo by Terry Marshall
    Will scan and post the photo and will also see if I can get a better copy from Terry Marshall,asking if he has any more of the event -he should have.
    Will be good to add to the thread.

    Cars are taking a Right Hand corner - past what appears to be a very large house with a huge crowd in front.
