black boot board brackets!!!!!!!


I must admit though, its a nice looking old thing

the 'CIAO' on the rev counter is a good touch - I might stick that to the rev counter in my race car after my engine cried 'goodbye' when it saw 10 grand plus last year

Yes, looks to have his dabs all over it! Very nice though......

Deffo Greg, that paperwork and photos and buff logbook I remember him showing me.

[Pete]

Greg certainly found a hell of alot of special cars in such a short space of time, how lucky was he?? And some of them were actually real! He certainly inspired a few others to be just as "lucky"!

[mini63]

quite V997-ish...

I think thats been on the market before or perhap stayed on for years?

[Monotoneoew]

If I’m right, this car was built by Hales for a customer to replicate V 997, which he would not sell. Featured in the same magazine article as V 997

Interesting registration on the ADO16 in these original BMC press photos, for sale on eBay

It is interesting - but hard to know what car the registration was really on originally as BMC were known to swap registration numbers around between their cars for publicity photos

Interesting indeed, especially as the link doesn't seem to work now???
