Andrew, any idea on whose the gold Cortina is in your pic?

Andrew Kitson · 24 Jul 2002, 12:30 (Ref:341531)

Yes TimD
It is Cyd Williams. His first race car! He bought the car from John Cardwell who is now a director of the BRDC. He later changed the colour of the stripes to red, but still retained the gold.
I had the pleasure of sharing a glass of wine or two with the pair of them recently on the Sunday evening after the GP. I have many of Cyd's photos of his cars on loan, as I have just finished a 'montage' painting of the important cars from his career. I'll post it in Armchair Enthusiast if you like once Cyd approves the finished painting.

TimD · 24 Jul 2002, 13:10 (Ref:341569)

Cyd Williams, eh? That I didn't expect!

Yes please, would love to see the finished project.

zefarelly · 24 Jul 2002, 13:53 (Ref:341607)

all I know about this is its a Wilment Cortina GT, chasing a jag . . . . .probably '63

Andrew Kitson · 24 Jul 2002, 14:15 (Ref:341629)

Nice pic. It is Brands Hatch GP circuit at South Bank.
Not sure either who is in the Jag - can't make out the registration number. Cortina could be Arundell or Gardner I suppose.

zefarelly · 24 Jul 2002, 14:30 (Ref:341640)

1628 VC on the Jag, FOO 230 for the GT, I had to shrink it to post, I think there where three GT's racing Pre-Lotus, 2 Willment, the other being 229 and another, difficult to tell what colour it was in B+W, but I believe ran by Alan Mann? no plate on it either, but probably FOO 228

Apparently none of these cars survive . . .so Im very very slowly building my own

(not that Id be able to afford an original works car!)

this pic is from there 1st race visit and win in the US I think.

TimD · 24 Jul 2002, 14:56 (Ref:341657)

Now, doesn't 1628VC still survive though? I'm sure that was the number on Tiff Needell's Jaguar at Goodwood these last two years.

zefarelly · 24 Jul 2002, 15:16 (Ref:341672)

the one he spun?! . . .could be . . .whether its original or not is another matter though. . . .theres plenty of lookalikes at Goodwood

Andrew Kitson · 24 Jul 2002, 15:58 (Ref:341695)

Yes, that car 1628VC is owned by Jonathan Suckling of The Lloyds Motor Club and has been driven at the Goodwood revival by Tiff and also Win Percy. It is original.

Andrew Kitson: I love the painting of the BT21 - have a 21B myself and would like to buy a print or even an original painting. Can you help?

Andrew Kitson · 24 Jul 2002, 16:42 (Ref:341733)

Jenny

Thanks very much. Have just sent you a PM.
