Comment: I am always struck by the cleanliness and unfussiness (if that's the word) of the motor compartments of the originals as against some of the more spaghetti like presentations of replicas. That really is a no-nonsense clinical engine bay. I like.

Question: Is it a trick of the light, camera angle or something else; the angle of the jack lift bar and radiator looks skewed?

 

I did a full shoot of XGT2, which will be published extensively in next month's 'Classic and Sportscar' magazine.

The co driver with Gregor Fisken was Stuart Graham ex Camaro campaigner

The car expired in a cloud of steam/white smoke on a run up the hill

Tim -- I don't want to miss that, and acquiring C&SC in the USA being a somewhat delicate matter, would that be the August issue? (It's a little hard to tell from the web site what is the current issue).

Thanks,

Alan.

Anyone know what comprises the puffy-aluminum-looking firewall treatment?

Similar question for the rear clip?

My lips are sealed, but that little bird has good eyesight.

What would you folks say if I told you I "allegedly" have access to the original chassis No. for car XGT2 and pieces of X2? Does anyone have original photos of this plate or chassis imprint?

I would say - Hooray! :laugh:
