Well, that photo explains well why those type of exhaust headers were known as weedsweepers

Just to let you all know, Peter Crane and myself will be at Pomona for the Winternationals. Crazy Horses is being officially launched at the Wally Parks Motorsports Museum on February 12th at 5.00pm and we will have further book signings at the track from the NHRA Museum booth in the Heritage Display. Lots of names have already agreed to attend so watch Eurodragster.com for details. Peter and myself will also be meeting up and supporting the Project 1320 team who have been so helpful with our project. And we will be seeing how Booth Arons are getting on with the engine. We will have the chance to meet and greet companies who are supporting the project and hopefully get a few more on board. Any UK racers or fans attending please say hello. If you are in the book join us for signing sessions.

Thought you would like to know that I have been contacted by Brian Golden's widow Diane. Many of you will know that Brian was responsible for the restoration of the car so far which he carried out up until the 1980s until he passed away. Diane gave it to the National Motor Museum, Beaulieu who now own the car. She is thriled that we are completing Brian's work and said he would have been so proud. I think Diane has to be a guest of honour at the first official fire-up which will be held at Beaulieu.

I agree entirely, if it hadn't been for the Golden's who knows what the fate of "Ally" might have been.It may well have been lost forever.
