Hi all

Just been down to the local auction and there are a load of Walter Hayes items selling later tonight. One lot that interested me was a copy of 'The inside story of the fastest Ford' and what looks like Walters retirement present from Ford Europe's design department. It's a concept car model on a plinth that was presented to him. The lot also includes a signed photo of everyone he worked with at Ford Europe design.

So the question is, should I go down in an hour or so and have a bid on the lot? The book is what really interested me but as Walter Hayes was involved with the GT40 program the other items might be worth having.

Don't know much about the guy so any thoughts?
