Thanks for the photo’s Stu.

I had a fantastic day with Paul Easter in Bulee at the MCR day. Will do a resto tread on the car when I get back from the Alps with the car.

There are plenty of shots of the '68 Monte on the following link. You'll have to wade through shots of Lancias and Citroens, but the quality of the pictures is worth it. There are also shots of one of the BMC cars in scrutineering having its head and carbs measured.
