About Me:: i AM RETIRED AFTER A BUISY LIFE.
While studying engineering in London I designed , built and raced three racing cars with the help of Mike Clive and others.
I then worked for Napiers as an engineer for some years on production of the Deltic engine.
I then formed my own company in the property business building and selling Houses then commercial property.
In 1970 I bought a F1 Cooper BRM and with Roger refurbished it. Sadly it was crashed and scraped but saving the V12 BRM engine and Hewland Gear box.
I bought a BRM P153 tub and suspension wheels etc . My engine fitted so we assembled the car chassis No 004.
We raced it in 1973 and 1974. I sold it then bought a Brabham F2 and raced it for a short period. I have kept an interest in Racing.
