db69 rally cars

[db69]

here a few pics of cars over the years
started with a 1600 mk2 when 19 years old
moved on to toyota engine 1600 16v ,by 92 had a second car built from a shed of grp 4 shell with an astra red top. then replaced toyota motor in 1 st car with proper 240 bhp red top and first time out rolled it in to a ball(pics included)
reshelled it in 94 , build a saph cozzy in 95 4x4 sold every thing after that for kids and house,started again 99 with current mk1 meixco to post historic spec in the hrcr stage championship enjoyed every time out in a proper rally car , with some sucess won class on manx 2005 , tour of flanders 2005 ,robin hood 2002 ,ypres 24 hour 2002 and track rod, now in the process of building a proper grp 4 mk2 hopefully ready for roger albert clark

this is the current mk1 mexico (British Historic Rally Championship, class winning car)





The car used to be Vista orange, with a black vinyl roof. I removed the roof (well the vinyl bit) and painted it ermine white, "for a laugh" one summer, and that bastard roof took several years off my life. "NEVER AGAIN"

Some shots of the mk2, in various states. That airborne shot is the infamous yumps on the Otterburn Ranges.
