Great shot, Barry, of your Beauty.

And, you have her working well; that is some 50 miles (88 kms) for her to cover, for the London-to-Brighton Run.

Interesting, to see the Apparatus evolve - from open-body trucks, with all the gear [and crew] hung on the exterior, to the enclosed van-like bodies of present-day.

Do you know - apart from the Wheeled Escape - this rig could pass for a North American machine - many early ones had RHD over here, including the legendary Aherns-Fox.

Regards,
