Hi Martin,
I'm sure there was a thread on here(been searching but can't find it)The yellow SEAC racer had problems with the s/s chassis cracking so it was swapped for a mild steel one.Someone bought the ss chassis repaired it and built a blue race car with it.
All hear say and assumptions I'm afraid.I'm sure there was a thread on here(been searching but can't find it)The yellow SEAC racer had problems with the s/s chassis cracking so it was swapped for a mild steel one.Someone bought the ss chassis repaired it and built a blue race car with it.
The Blue Car at TrackVroad is my car. History of this car, Ex David Gerald race car. Circuit raced for 3 years prior to being road registered in 1990, then continued to be campaigned further by quite in interesting fellow. I've been looking into history and will say that it is not a made up car as a lot of people seem to think. There is more very interesting history but I'm just waiting for further information from previous owners.

Hi Steve,
I thought the blue race car at Track V Road has a stainless chassis with trailing arm rear suspension; and therefore is likely to be one of the original 390SE race cars with a SEAC nose grafted on. I haven't seen this car though so I cannot confirm that.
My research says that there were two 390SE racers with trailing arms and stainless chassis; One as above, then the other 390SE racecar morphed into the SEAC racer and was modified to 'A' frame rear suspension in the process.
There were then two additional stainless chassis built as spares/development/additions for the race car; these were passed on to customers when the race car got banned and are under D177ALL and D488PHG.
I stand to be corrected if anyone else knows otherwise!

I received a couple of e-mails today and I had to check the date as after reading them I thought it was April the 1st.
Brian is trying to claim that his car is in fact the factory race car and mine is not!
Very interesting as I have documents from the factory and the TVRCC proving mine is the factory race car. My chassis number is the same as the factory's and TVRCCs records for the SEAC racer.
I can see a court case coming on!

Feel free to start a court case if thats what you want to do? What would it be for or about and would you want this to be in an English or Scottish Court??
Lets get one thing straight here, No one has claimed anything and your obviously making assumptions just like before. I'm not nor ever have said that your car is not a factory race car..! All I'm trying to do is find out about the blue car, history and it's authenticity as it is different. Why worry and threaten Court action..? Are you worried about something because I'm not.
Oh, and one thing that I can say on here Andy is "Don't ever threaten me with court action".

Still trying to piece together the history, then hopefully find photos and put the car back as it was in YELLOW paint. Any body is welcome to look at the car and help out if they know some thing or have seen the car racing.

Cool. I don't know anything on the history of your wedge but it certainly looks very interesting. Be good to follow your search and what you come up with.
