WILLPOWER - the story of rally driver, Will Sparrow
Quote:
"Described by author, Pablo Raybould as a work of passion, without any hope of recouping expenses, WILLPOWER is the story of rally driver, Will Sparrow who like a lot of us took up rallying in the Sixties. However, unlike most of us Will turned his hobby into a business, and drove, for among others, Dealer Team Vauxhall, Opel, and Chrysler. This book leaves no stone unturned and runs to over four hundred pages of incredibly detailed text, accompanied by copious images. Will Sparrow 1945-2023 was the sort of person we all aspired to be. Well done Pablo. incredible value at £50 and only available in limited numbers."

The book brings back so many memories of reading Triple C days back in the late 60s early 70s with Will's Mini articles. Also a great review of his competition history over the years.
