HJ Meyer just sent me his files from the Sports Car Forum dealership. Most of these records cover the racing of Sports Car Forum as well as racing in the mid-west from 1960-65. (the stack of documents is about 10" tall). Everything from letters between HJ and John Panks down to the check stubs.
It was awfully nice of HJ to send these with the intent that they remain with the car.
I think Buck Tripple ended up with all the Tiger stuff.
I loved one sheet that has HJ's notes. Pete Polver must have asked if he could buy a racing Sunbeam prepared by SCF. So, what would you pay?
basic car: cost 2300.00 list 2909
add in all the race parts: cost 3631.24 list 5183.03
Credit for parts taken off (winsheild etc.) 480.00
(btw each part is listed with cost and list price)
At 5183.03 that was a pretty steeply priced Alpine!
