Hi Tony, Again some fantastic shots of really great cars. To see some of those cars back on track would be tremendous. I understand that the Addis Charger is currently being put back together.
I am really looking forward to the OSCA 40th reunion meeting in November.

Yep definitely Ralph Mossman. Just found another shot that I had the name written on the back of with the car in a different paint scheme. Will post more photos shortly. Some were water damaged unfortunately and others were a little faded so I turned them black and white to retain the image.

The # 32 Mustang was Rob Kennard. The car was the former Bob Slade car which Rob raced prior to building the Cortina Ford V8.
