Mark, where do you find some of this stuff? It is fantastic!
Thanks ‘Spyder’, I have an eye for the obscure! When I sit in front of the telly I google away, it’s funny the stuff you trip over. The website is random because the photos I find drive the content, I seem to be going thru a pre-1960 phase @ present, funny as my own interests are from about then on! Mark
‘Spyder’ can you help me with the specs of the 911 ‘S/T’ packs fitted to the cars raced by McKeown and Foley in 1969/71, have got the capacity increase but intrigued to know what these factory ‘kits’ comprised? Many thanks if you can assist, article nearly finished but I’m light on for detail, Mark
Mark I don’t have it with me but I should be able to get it all for you where are you? I might have something very interesting for you
