John the Scrutineer took enforcing the regulation "the car must comply at all times" rather too literally.

Jason, a couple of options:-

1) If you have found a suitable pic but can't post it on here, PM me, and I'll send you my email address so that you can send it to me, and I'll post it here for you
2) If you haven't found one yet, or currently don't have the time to do it, would you like me to find one as a filler? You can post one later when you are not so busy.
