RIP Alan, an icon of 60's racing. The beautifully prepared red and gold Mk 1 Cortina's and the blown wheel arch Escort's must have gained motor sport many a fan and follower.
Always regretted selling my Escorts :-( |

A legend and, has already been said, one of the most recognisable liveries in motorsport. A great supporter of historic racing and will be much missed. Sympathies to Henry, the family and friends. RIP Alan
