Re: What would you buy & why?

There seems to be a fashion for cars to be finished in what looks like grey primer :? . I suppose colour and appearance is a matter of taste; a subjective thing, where nobody is right and nobody is wrong. Alas many people seem to have no knowledge of things, beyond whether they like the look of it o...

Re: Coleford car show

I rather like the Forest of Dean.....the Dean Forest Railway and the Woodman Inn at Parkend. For various reasons, not just pandemic, I've not been since 2019. A long shot but does anyone know Clarence Harper, who lived in Coleford and who I knew in my hillclimbing days? He'd be a good age by now. Wh...

Re: Post pictures of your pride and joy

Sadly I am now able to add another to my collection, which hasn't changed in nearly 20 years. I say sadly because the red Midget belonged to my father, who died at the beginning of 2021. He bought the car in 2006, with the intention of just using it but I have finally realised that my father enjoyed...

Re: 7th April 1968

It looks like it could be an ex airfield. I can tell you that the last corner was a left hander on to the finishing straight. I will dig out the video. I've not been to Scotland a lot but I've been up the A9 and over the Forth Road Bridge. I know that the firths take a lot of driving. The last time ...

Re: 7th April 1968

Does your father recall a very wet race, in which Jim Clark drove a Porsche 356 and battled for the lead with someone in an AC Ace (I think the driver was named Ian Smith)? I don't know the venue; it looked like an old airfield. It was a race with all sorts of cars; someone went off in a Mk 7 Jaguar...
