I then built a brand new mini clubman (dave pritcard chassis) which I ran under the car coulors banner.after a bad year or two alan and I parted ways and the car was then painted red and was run in belgium and holland germany and austria for a year or two.
My last car was built at gartrac after a chance meeting with dave Bignold (gartrac) who agreed to build a very special car for me a very trick bit of kit we could change a steering rack in about 5 minutes it was all rose jointed around 24 of them raised floor fabricated subframe etc. running a 1500 cc wessex motor the cars main advantage was reliability handling and braking.
Phew
So you worked for Blazespeed. I'm building a model based on the Blazespeed Mini Hot Rod driven by Roger Smith.
