Time has marched on and it is now jonathan playfoot who is the talented engineer running playfoot engineering and pete barnard who drives the superbly prepared courier to achieve such outstanding results
Interestingly the same car was being run.
Some months ago i received an email from david white who is a very knowledge model maker and collector regarding the elva engineering van which he had seen at the goodwood revival He subsequently put together the following article which appeared in the โdiecast collectorโ magazine. Having left the elva team just before christmas 1956, โmacโ worked for a while at a local hurst green garage but soon turned to harry weslake for advice Harry suggested that he should apply to rover and vauxhall and he was welcomed into the experimental department at vauxhalls.
A look at the photograph of the elva engineering team outside the york workshop shows charlie in the light overalls, but his working relationship with fgn goes back far longer and lasted for nearly fifty years.
