I think they mainly used mk2 running gear.
Really, just a live axle...seems a little simple.I used to have a shop in Godalming as. Saw a few Gartracs. My dad was friends with John Welch and I think Martin Schance. It is odd as I became friendly with Trevor Reeves much later on in life and guess he raced them at one point.

The guy who originally owend your g6 was a guy called Rick Lemon....facebook him sure he be happy to chat with you...eastbourne area
I remember the G6 of Rick Lemmon and Martin Yorkshire very well. Believe it was originally purchased by Rick from the Brundall motor co in norwich and remember seeing it being driven about Eastbourne often. One time Rick caught the front crossmember on a raised manhole cover and tore the subframe out the chassis. Also back in the day was a grey g6 owned by Mark Downing with was v6 but had a rs500 lump fitted. I did drive this one a couple of times and it was fast but the steering was very stiff and the brakes poor as no servo was fitted.Gassing Station | Readers' Cars | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
