I enjoy these trips through old photos, thanks Rick.
Did my front door knock at the wrong time? Or did you not get a photo of a Dellow in the rally section?
{As one example, a Dellow won the 1952 Daily Express Rally outright. The car concerned recently got an airing on the Dellow Facebook page too, it still exists! Another example, Dellows also won the Circuit of Ireland Rally 2 years in a row....]
Not an ideal concept for a rally car I admit. I wonder how the navigator managed to keep a hold on his maps?
Not bad for a 1172cc Ford sidevalve engine either? _________________ Dellow Mk2, 1951 built, reg 1952.
Fiat 126 BIS
Cannon special [1996 registered. Built in 1950's]

Ford Pop chassis, Ashley 1172 bodyshell, in pieces. |

Mmmm a Dellow made it into the vid before this one, I think, but alas not here - well spotted!!

| ............. I had same issue and my comment vanished too.
I guess H&SE would freak out at this summer occupation. Throttle set, just had to keep it in a straight line. Happy Days .
