I recently exchanged emails with Adrian asking if he could conform the history of the car that I had put together. He confirmed that the car was built by Bill Stone at SABRE, and that it one of a 1976 shipment of 6-10 cars with Hawke uprights that went to ... John Vilijoen in Marin County. I would certainly appreciate anything you could tell about the car. I am in the process spiffing the Reynard up, and am torn between keeping the original livery, or changing to the Reynard works livery
