Wow I have been busy finishing up on the MK-IV USRRC car for a show and I got these emails ... Fantastic info to be able to restore a car that has this much connection to the history of UK racing and the car found its way to a fibergla
ss nut.

Comments : hi i was doing a hunt for some more photos of my dads car
"megalomainia" and came accross your posting of his car, looking very much alive
after 45 years. me and my brother adrian are just stunned to find megalomainia
still alive as we have been looking for 30 odd years for this, this is just
amazing, our mum dorothy has told us about those days many times, we are both so
proud of our dads racing history. Keith, our dad died some 33 years ago when i
was 12. if you can tell us any thing of the history we might not have or more
pictures we would be so gratefull, me and my brother would like to come and see
his old car if we could, funds allowing, or with a winning loto ticket bye her
back. thank so much for poating these pictures makes us happy to see
megalomainia again. kind regards.

Comments : hi forgot to say my dad hand built megalomainia from a MGB she has a
e type jag front end F4 phantom air intakes infront of the rear wheels and the
rest is hand moulded GRP. he was also working on a jet car but ran out of money
just before we moved up to norfolk UK, the engine for the jet car was out of a
lightning with some 20,000lbs of thrust.
kind regards

Dear Sir
My name is Andy Greenaway and my brother ED Greenaway helped with that car back in SS MOTORS in Micham Surrey England and I would love to know what you intend to do with it PLEASE dont scrap or part it out,I would be VERY interested in buying it if it came up for sale
If you are interested I can call my bro and get some history for you
This car started it all for me at the age of 12 or so !!!
