Its' a S.C.A engine and at Snetterton
but guess Mike Twite? but dont hold me on that what do you think ? (lack of grey and bolk)
No idea who lady is but (left to right), Mike Twite (Motoring News), Ivor Walklett, and Trevers Walklett. Willie Green is at the wheel (just noticeable). What a superb car, 1966, Britain's first ever mid-engined GT.

In the other pic before, I am 100% sure it's Willie refuelling with Trevers.

My G33 Surely one of best looking cars ever built?
The G34 / 40 ruined the original smooth lines by changing the bonnet, headlamps and rear arches. You can’t beat the original G33V8 noise either but I'm biased!
Sorry could load my pictures from my hard drive? How do I do that?

Here is my G20 on the Blue Ridge Parkway last October (North Carolina). I plan on going back the first week of October this year.

Yes, I think 'they' think it's only the Dare ones that can't be made, but having seen a copy of the Maeda agreement it states categorically the rights are to 'ALL OF THE G4 SERIES' and 'ALL OF THE' G12 SERIES'.
The operative word is 'Series'.
Interestingly that could include the G27 as it most certainly can be considered part of the 'G4 Series'.

Jeez, Geoff!

Even I haven't got any pics that old.
Yep, that's Swallowfield.
If you look carefully its still got the SHELLSport
front screen sunstrip in the rear window
(if i still had that i'd be putting it on ebaylaugh).

I think I had only just fitted those Astrali
(blastfromthepast) alloys.
I liked my rear wiper cos it worked! Can't remember if I left the roll cage in it now, nice and neat and unobtrusive Safety Devices one.

I did get carried away with two-tone cars in those days.
Another G15 I had ended up blue and silver.

Never did hear what happened to the car,
last seen in Norway ...on ice!

I've no idea simon.
There was the G33 SC which was a reworking of the G33, video here:

Then came the G34, then the G40 and of course the 'Gin1' G34 made in sweden.
