Great photo's

[athens7]

Thanks for the photos-lucky bloody you!

[Doug Liedblad]

Thanks, these are great.

In your 4th photo, the chap on the right is Martin Wade. He worked for Lotus from 1963 to 1973 and was in charge of development of the Lotus 26R.

Now lives in Wrightwood.

Great guy with many stories of his time with Lotus.

Good eye. Yes, you are correct, that is my friend Martin. Besides the 26R, there is the Type 57, the Seven X, the Type 62, the Type 72 ......

The other gentleman is Len Terry. Responsible for the Type 38 Indy winner, the Gurney Eagles ......

Can you identify the lady I'm talking to in picture #3?

[athens7]

How about identifying the ladies in picture #7?

[GWise]

Can you identify the lady I'm talking to in picture #3?

That's easy. Hazel Chapman.

Looks like great fun. Do you have a web album up somewhere?

[Doug Liedblad]

Where do you know Martin from?

I met him thru his work in the US on UAVs when he worked with a couple of my brothers.

Doug asked?

Where do you know Martin from?

Same as you. So I guess that you must be brother to Phil & Tom?

[Doug Liedblad]

You are correct.

Thanks.
