Great shot what year was it as Dunc looks very young? Have you noticed the range of cars in shot G32, G21, G15, G4, G16, G31, possibly the G25 and G26 too?

I'd say that was late 1988 or 89.
Late Trevers Walklett 5th from left next to Duncan (background), Mark Walklett 4th from left leaning on white 32.

You missed out one car Harvey, G29 Thundersports (No. 14).

If i remember correctly, the 3 G32'S were the first to be built in scunny. and then showed at the 1988 british motorshow at the nec. If you look very closely at the picture there are 2 more,,,that you both have missed ! Theres one between the G21 and G29 thundersports car i can't remember with out asking Dunc.[G23/G24]???. I might be wrong. The other car is behind Mr T Walklet and dunc. is ether duncs G4/s4 or mark walklet G4/G27 toyota powered road car.. {hard to say who's due to picture being in black and white}..which were at the factory at the time..

Hi Simon,
ST200 2.5 duratec with reground cams, ported and polished heads. The Jenvey throttle bodies are causing problems so it's up and running for the time being without them. It's currently sorn with the interior stripped out, but hoping it will all be back together and mapped over christmas.

Shame you didn't go for a V8! Cant beat that noise, Rumble Rumble Rumble roar as you open her up!! Shame we dont have more tunnels and tree lined Avenues to blast through.
Have you watched the top gear G33 report by Tiff?

Hi Harvey, I was tempted by a 5ltr tvr v8 from a griff. The problem is i really don't think it will go in to the G20 chassis without serious mods- although i know of a chap who has done it. The bonnet shape becomes a bit of a problem too - not as much room to play with as the G33. That burble and roar from the rover v8 is something else.

I'm sorely tempted to rip it out again though now i've seen GKD fit the M3 engine in what is effectively the same chassis, although they do mention the wheelbase has got 100mm longer to accomodate it. Must ahve a butchers at that one soon.

As a former ST200 owner, I know what they can sound like. In that little beast with throttle bodies, it'll quite honestly be EPIC. Nice work. smile
