Hello jjordan

What a coincidence you should drop by! Was it just a conincidence?

Clive has been back in touch. Smiley had two different Mk 21s - one sold to M.A.A.C. in August 1971 and raced by Gordon in USA; a second he bought much, much later in 1975 when he was in the UK. This second car was bought as a F3 from Bernard Vermilio and converted to a F Allantic. Clive reckons he crashed this second car.

It would make some sense if the Smiley car went to Brownlee but it would be great if you could confirm this.

Thanks

Allen
