Nothing of help with tracing the son, but a bit of trivia relating...John Heynes (a British Insurance broker) and McRae set up McRae Cars in Poole and Heynes subsequently sold their factory in c.1973 to Penske as a base for their F1 operation

Would that be Jonathan Heynes that ran the Peugeot 206's in the BTCC in 2001? The team was called HTML and they were based at Silverstone. |

There was also a John Heynes involved with the ownership of Brafield Stadium also known as Northampton International Raceway (see Wikipedia entry) and he was definitely something to do with the BTCC team mentioned above
