Fred Gallagher should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
To fill in a bit of detail, John has entered the three victorious 1934 Alpine Trial Talbot 105s for Gareth Burnett and James Diffey in Competition and himself in Regularity. A great boost for the event.

John
Dont know this event. Is it purely Talbots or other prewar cars.
Dont know if you remember. I once spoke to you in regards to Altas, as I had thought about one and I met an associate of yours in Reading but nothing transpired. I did though give him an Alta fleece for you (made in UAE)

Truly wonderful! Shades of the late Anthony Blight?
