A couple of cars that passed through my hands that had a Shellsport connection of those years ,were the first L/H drive Mark Rutherford Mk 2 Escort ,that Warren Steel had built by Cook Motor Racing ,that car exists no more ,what little remains of the body shell now resides on my Space frame Escort ,the other car that I owned for a short time was the ex GM Vauxhall Chevette,that was also built by CMR and I think driven a couple of times by Mike Hannell,the then GM dealer from Dargaville.I brought that car as a roller with the intentions of building it into a Sports Sedan,using my 416B Hart Twin Cam,with a Hewland gearbox in the rear ,it never happened because the whole project got binned when some body in their wisdom changed the then non existant rules around to stop me putting the gearbox in the rear,so I then onsold the roller on to Warren Steel,and from memory some one with a connection to Ralph Mossman brought it and built it up into a sports sedan using a V8 engine
