TJB 199

Post by mk1 »

UNKNOWN CAR German Rally October 1959(now TJB 199)
Postby davidscothorn » 19 May 2017, 01:17

Morris 850
Oct 1959 P Ozanne/ A Shepherd

No further information in Bill Price's ''25Years etc''. Browning does not mention it.

Between YOP 663 (Viking) and TMO registrations, (RAC)
Unlikely to be TJB 199 (Moss/Turner Mini Miglia, same month)?
Is there any further info out there?

I would echo the request for any further data. There seems to have been several past attempts elsewhere on line to find out more about this entry.
One possibility is that it was just that - an entry that was not taken up. Pat Moss certainly turned up (in Wiesbaden?) in a Big Healey.
Another is that it was Tish Ozanne's own car taken under the works' wing. However, I cannot find any evidence she owned a rally Mini before buying 17AOG later on and she had her own Riley 1.5 around then.
If it was a works car that never went there it might have been TJB199, that then was sent on that little local jolly the same month. (Oh, how Turner must have relished winning Knowldale CC's event, given the local rivalries of the time).
