ianselva should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
I suppose one of the earliest Special saloons was Les Ballamys Ford Pop. which was an upright Ford Popular with supercharged 100E engine, Les's own IFS and fibreglass one piece front. Although raced as an A7 not a Special saloon there was a cutdown Austin 7 saloon, which had the roof lowered till the screen pillars were about 6 " high which was raced by a guy , called I think Mike Forrest, who towed it on a trailer with a 30s Rolls Royce.
