I never knew the P1800 was made by Jensen for Volvo.

An Interceptor would also be in my top 5 along with a Lotus Esprit - of course - and an early 1980s era Mercedes SL

I didn’t know that either, every day is a school day!

Also just type in "Glenfrome Delta" into your search engine to see a range of photos.

The chassis (engine, and suspension) was designed by my father's business partner. When that had been done my father then designed and made the body of the car.

Both my father and his business partner, Ken Evans had worked at Bristol Cars: Ken Evans was a mechanic, my father was a sheet-metal worker in the body shop. Both of them decided to resign from Bristol Cars and start their own business.

Cool car. Very Gerry Anderson.

Even got grab handles for rack mounting.

The front end has more than a hint of 80’s Ferrari about it. Very cool.

So Vivian Hunt was your dad Barry? That's something to feel proud about :)

Yes, was my father, and yes I am proud with what he did.

The only regret I have is I never got to ride in the car. I don't even know where it is.

So Thursday was “prom night” and this is how Maggie ended up looking for the night: (Tamzin scrubbed up pretty well, too!)

Everything went to plan and the girls had a great evening. [emoji846]

Their only that age once - Land Rovers, I mean.
