Dick,
When I corresponded w/ Duncan Rabagliatti about a year ago, after the 1st of the Ausper articles was written in the FJ newsletter, he knew which car I was talking about, As Mr. Kiner is part of the known history he and the current owner have.
When I was at John's shop back in '86, I looked at the Ausper, but knew I couldn't afford it, since I'd had to take out a loan to buy the Eleven, and barely had garage space for that. I now wish I'd taken photos or maybe even more seriously considered it's purchase. But I didn't. Plus, I wanted a Lotus Jr.
That desire was filled several years later when I bought a basketcase 20/22 that I spent years putting together, finally reaching the track late in 2001. Hopefully Jim will have scanned the photos for me when I see him in about 10 days, and I will pass them on to you and Duncan.
Roger
