Show off ;) :lol:

Just had a mail yesterday, regarding the Danish Sprint, apparently wasnt it untill the 90ies, that it was scrapped :roll:

Shame it ended its life so late, would have made a little more "sense" if it had been scrapped earlier.

Ah but one of them is a 1969 car, so possibly a 'home' conversion, and if the other one is 15 years old that's pre Neville doing them again, possibly another 'home' conversion, so Marks still one Trickett Sprint up :P

The '69 car is a Mk3/4 and the other one is a bare GRP shell.
