I do not have a phone number but I remember Maurice and his brother having
a BMW chassis built by Rob North around that time. Also Rob built them an Imp
afterwards which looks remarkably like one of the Gristwood Team Imps which
was bought from Dennis Ertridge last year.

Hi Dick,

That's correct. Dave LePavoux's Imp has a Rob North chassis.

I would probably be breaching the Data Protection Act if I started giving out numbers - but due to the fact that I haven't got it - I can't - so hopefully won't get done!!

Jason, bearing in mind that Maurice raced in the 1965 TT when I was only 17 years old and I am now 63 you may be clutching at straws :?:

Oi RP! I was only twenty one for the 1965 TT despite what Thundersport Syd and Dave Stuart would have folk believe and I'm still about - at least I was when I last looked :o
It is true about the sidecar family - you can stop racing but you can never, ever leave!
