Is there any old modifieds out there that are still drivable?
I know Mike Jury has a few old cars and parts but has anybody restored any?

We hear stories of people that are gunna, but have never seen them yet.
There is one up in the Wellsford area that has been under restoration for a few years, last I heard it was nearly finished, and it is a significant car historically.

Saw one of Roger Bertrams' old chassis sitting at Gary Harris' workshop the other day. It looked in pretty good condition and there were still a few items of running gear attached to it. If the parts were available I dare say it wouldn't take too long to put it back together.

Seen the old Ross Baker Anglia bodied mod from the mid seventies about 12 months ago. Looked almost completely restored at that stage, would be good to see it out on the clay again.

Has anybody found any pics or old cars?
Does anybody have any idea what happened to the ex 93A modified of Peter O'Brien. It was a red chassied white Fiat Bambina bodied car. No wing.
Pallmall, do you know what happened to the Brendon Caughy car after his passing?

Rob, the car that Bambi had was the ex 99a of Foxys, built by Brian and Des Clarke, this car Alan Turner brought and then became my first car. The car has now disappeared into thin air.
