Ray,
Tell us what, where and when please.
Ken, if you scroll back to post 325 (which is a quote from a previous page...) and check the first photo in that post, you'll be looking at this car. Somewhere in that photo.
There were, I understand, seven of them built and there's seven of them in the photo. This one I came across most unexpectedly.
I was driving from Brno to Mulhous in 2016 and I came upon this little rig in Lichtenstein (or it might have been Switzerland). I had time to get the camera up and switched on and get this one shot before it took an exit.
It was a pretty good day, really. I wanted to look at the Bremgarten circuit and set the GPS from Bremgarten not knowing there were two towns with that name in Switzerland. When I got to the wrong one (and still didn't know it) I saw a workshop with a motor sporting kind of name on it and so I went in there to ask directions to the circuit.
The owner of the place showed me around some of his cars...
His name is Rudi Caprez, he had pics of other cars he raced too. Including a pretty quick looking thing he drove in the Targa Florio. No wonder he could afford a smile...
Sadly, when I got to Bern I found there was so little left of the old Bremgarten circuit it wasn't worth the effort. And the effort was made harder than it should have been because nobody seemed to know what I was talking about. I struck the same problem at Rouen a couple of weeks later.
Anyway, I hope that answers your question, Ken. And that these photos are 'random' enough for this thread.
