Views of the Goodwood revival

These photographs have been submitted by Member, Phil Gates and were taken at this year's Goodwood Revival. The Vanguard Phase 1 above was prepared by Ian Kellett for entry in the St. Mar's Trophy. There is more about this car and it's Transporter further down the page.

The other cars race prepared and shown here are  two Standard 10's and a Vanguard Vignale.  I would be grateful for the stories of each of these cars and how they fared at the Festival.  There is also a 6 cwt Pickup performing support duties. You can click on the smaller photos to see an enlargement of any of them:

 Here is Phil's shot under the bonnet of the Vanguard:

Ian Kellet has prepared the Vanguard photographed above and sends me these additional photos of it and the Vanguard he has converted into a Transporter

 

Ian writes by email:

Hi Phil
 
Yes the Transporter was completed the night before we were due to set off to Goodwood but unfortunately the driver who was bringing my phase 1 race car down had some work commitments come up at the last minute and would not have got down until Friday lunch time so I had to bring the race car and all our gear - and the Transporter was left in the workshop, so it's public debut will have to wait. Please find a couple of photos attached which will give you an indication of how well it looks.
 
Regards, Ian. 

You can read more about these cars on the Holmfirth Classics website, www.ikclassicsandracing.co.uk

Thanks Ian, We look forward to the first public outing of your Transporter!

Phil
