New pictures!




I am indebted to Ted Taylor for sending me a raft of new (new to me) pictures of BYE at the start of, and during the 1970 World Cup Rally.
Thanks Ted, that's all I needed to raise the enthusiasm levels and dust off the welding gear!

We are on the hunt for any pictures of this car (specially colour). There must have been loads of pictures of it taken at the time bearing in mind it was number one off the starting ramp in the World's most famous rally!
