Grimme, what a great offer, Rhy's have played around with the Mistral pic, there has been a piece on NZ Classiic cars and wreck forum about the Mistral. Produced in Dunedin by Emslie and Flockton, in the late 1950's.. now must find the Advert

here is my copped version of your picture;

Where was the Hillclimb, a great view for those spectators ??

[Spgeti]

There was a Minstral at the last MG Charity meeting at Manfeild earlier this year and then came up for sale on TM.
I am sure Rhys probably knows of the car.

Thanks Grimme, when I get them back from Steve, if I have time before I leave the country (for ever) I will take you up on that.
Did your better half wind you up last night? Spoke to her while at the vampires yesterday.

Sean, I "think" I put this together as time went on. If you look at post #1 it is the same photo as post #30. As Steve has the book and is doing the posting, I now wonder if they are not being posted as they appear in the book, but until I get it back I hesitate to be too definite.
You say Jimmy's BRM, I am pretty sure he was in a Lotus, as I carried some front wheels from the paddock to the pits on practice day for him.

Well Rhys, I was at one point Blond, I meant "Jackie", not "Jimmy" and I reckon post #38 has answered the question. I think I types that just after they had interviewed Sir Jackie on the grid at Goodwood where he talked about watching his brother.

Yes she mentioned that you had dropped in, mentioned you made a comment, little busy but there will be more soon. Got to put some more on the ' Boy's Trans Am trip' years back, will get there, remember they are married now and got to get wording right, being a marriage guidance councillor is not my best forte.

Whose film is post 49 Sean? Some of that must have been taken just about behind me where I was taking photos! Obviously someone who could tell more about the Mike Walker Bambina!
