    It has been really fun putting all this together and talking to Arthur who had been under the 'radar' so to speak for such a long time. The third article is about to come out in 'Full Grille'. I thought all you guys back home may want to have a look too.

    Arthur's story is really starting gain some momentum now and he has been recently interviewed by LRE.

    But you know where you saw it first,

    The really interesting thing about Arthur's story is he currently designs trailer axles and suspension components for the Australian Caravan and Camper trailer industry.

    But then you wouldn't get timeless classics like this...

    British Pathe - CAR TESTS

    This was also part of his career so far

    FYI, there is a really good article in the latest 'Full Grille' on the repro 80" distributor caps that the Register has just started to re produce, in todays money they are about $100. The same firm was commisioned by the S1 club to re produce the spark caps, so this is the first time in years you can easily replace all the H.T system on an 80" with new manufactured components. I was one of the testers for the distributor caps and they are great.
