ERA AJM1

 

This car was built up between 1984 and 1986 by Tony Merrick using a large number of original ERA spares from the stock of Thomson and Taylor which had been bought by Sandy Murray during the 1960s and which had then later been passed on to Tony.

The car was built to B type specification, and has always been fitted with a 1500cc engine.

Owned by Ben Fidler since 2008, who is also the current custodian of ERA R4D of which I'll post some photographs of tomorow. 

I shot these in May 2024 at Prescott's superb Historique meeting.

Nissan Silvia (S14) 270R

The ultimate iteration of Nissan's S14 platform? The 270R, with only 30 (or 50 depending on where you research) made, 270hp and dripping in Nismo goodies is the ultimate factory car.

I couldn't find a great deal about this Mangusta, but it makes for one tough-looking race car.
