It does interest me more and more, especially other subjects than the usual Auto-Union, Alfa, etc stuff.
I know it's a primarly a F1 message-board but subjects from 1900 to 1930 are fascinating to me!

My use of the word "special" was not intended in the VSCC sense, ie built last year combining period parts with 21st-century technology, but in the sense of a non-factory "one-off". Or was this one factory-built?

Thats the one.Mike found it in a garage in Oxford and rebuilt it .Full set of pre war photos exist but they show unusual signs painted on the car, but as they say correct for the period! The car is about 150kilos less than a normal 328.Only difference to original is a Bristol head
