Confirmed that DJB92B on the 65 RAC (Lusenius) was a Group 3 entry (and thus became redundant with the change in Appendix J from 1.1.66. and hence the new car for Sweden 66).

Culcheth/Syer, Welsh Dec 66 (whatever Browning and Price might have you believe about the date). 5th.
As for RAC 66, photos show the car to be much as it would have left Abingdon.
Culcheth had been to Europe in his own car 7HLY in 66. Despite the "sold to Sprinzel" tag, was it always intended for Culcheth to use it? Turner seems to have rewarded Fall, Friswell etc. for following his advice to go continental.

Re: DJB 92 B
Confirmed (not least by the recent Culcheth biography) that Brian Culcheth in DJB92B on 66 RAC, 66 Welsh and 67 Circuit of Ireland (damage to nearside front in the last) was in Bill/Dennis Cresdee's car.
W. D. Cresdee seems to be referred to as Dennis these days but as far as I can recall was referred to as Bill in period. Period event entry lists can often be little help as some required full names, some just first name - and many continental events place surname first. followed by first name...

66 Coupe des Alpes. John Sprinzell/Atis Krauklis No. 58. Retired.
66 RAC 1275 (1293). Cresdee's car. Culcheth retired on 3rd stage (gearbox). Some money from Castrol towards entry/expenses.
67 Flowers. Cresdee's car with 970 (999) engine. Culcheth. 10th OA, 1st in class, team prize with Hopkirk and Fall. BMC Comps paid entry fee and expenses.
67 Circuit of Ireland 1275 (1293). Cresdee's car. Culcheth retired towards end when in good position (hit bridge).
As a direct consequence of the Flowers result, Browning offered Culcheth a full works drive on the 67 Coupe des Alpes in Group 6 1800.
