1971 Ford Escort Mexico Challenge

 Using a car borrowed from Ford, my late father, Roger Bell raced in the 1971 Ford Escort Mexico series, with the likes of future Formula 1 World Champion Jody Scheckter, Gerry Marshall, Colin Vandervell, Nick Britain, Barry Williams and Rod Mansfield, to name just a few. I don't have many photos of this series sadly.

Deputising for the late Gordon Bruce's entry, a one off race in the Uren prepared car.
