As I'm not only an Alfista, but have a long-term association with Imps - nice to see those shots, it would appear to be Adrian Oliver was being his usual exuberant self......

morninggents should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
It is Adrian, Richard.


He has good heritage, his dad was Eric Oliver, a renowned sidecar racer who had 'Jenks' as his passenger from time to time.

In post 4624 above(0400 Friday), a rare sighting of Brian Arculus's Alfa Giulietta Sprint Zagato. And a glimpse of the glorious Chev Camaro, showing off to Bauble's eagle-eyed lens by being ahead of Barry Davison's light blue Elan. Normally this was only a temporary phenomenon, but in the Oct. 2017 HSCC Season Finals, Barry was having a bit of an off-day, which he rectified by leading the Chev at the finish.

Indeed an XK140 built in 1955 and if the 'xkdata' website is anything to go by has now been returned / restored to roadster form if these pictures on the link below are to be believed. (Scroll down to the "2008" pics and you will see the car with a more competition oriented interior and the fastback as per the pics, yet the 2016 pics show it as a roadster with a more standard interior.)

Not really Viv, when my insurance shot up last year, despite like many, the car sitting on the drive most of the time, I sold the car. I am now saving a fair bit of money each month not paying tax and insurance, which goes into the pot for a replacement once life gets back to near normal. I figure sometime this month will be about right.
During lockdown I put less than 1500 miles on the clock, and still a hefty insurance increase, so as I can manage on a day-today basis without transport, now that we can go racing again I will look around.
If you have a nice little motor, cheap to run/insure, inexpensive to purchase, and not at all flash. Give me a call.
Baub.
