Thanks for the input guys.
Mickj, yes you are correct that Richard Blenko has the sports version. He is a good friend. He too though is at a loss as to the whereabouts of the single seater.
I think he aquired the sports one from Anthony Taylor.
Rob29, I have photocopies from photos of the car ( from Richard Blenko's collection) of the single seater when first built. It ran on skinny tyres at first- these were taken at Combe in 1966/67. Robin Darlington was indeed the driver then. Once Jim Moore was driving it- but still owned by Jack Pierce I believe, it ran on big wide F1 type tyres of the period. just another note - I still have Moore's autograph in my schoolboy Autograph book from the time!
Lets do as Mickj suggests and try some other long un-seen cars to tease our brains!
