That's the one
The factory AJP8 GT Cerbera , JR has it now, and at some point this year we're going to collect it from storage and John's got a freshly built race AJP to fit.

In later blue colour scheme.



Sort of how it is now.. but in one piece and a lot tidier than in these pics.

The DAF Trucks sponsored Tuscan - No 12 - was the factory's Development car. Driven by John Ravenscroft, Reidy, Neil Anderson etc.
It's being rebuilt super light - K nuts, lightened components,even down to non critical bolts being centre drilled.. Challenge spec. 4.5 and T5.
It was going to be rebuilt with a new colour scheme but some originality obsessed Herbert wink lobbied for the Silver colour scheme it wore back in the day nerd
