Hello,
no problem Puffyrs, you do right asking your question here cos' that's me that should have some apologizes to do... I have forgotten to answer to your private message...!
No, I've never been at the Manoir Automobile but I know they have some Gr B cars, the only one BX 4TC surviving, an maxi turbo (Sainz one) and a quattro and a 205 T16 E2... I think it's all they have in Gr. B
talking about Gr. B, it seems that the ascona ran into the Gr.B cos' it did at the Monte Carlo, I could see that on a photo.
I suppose it did all the season, even if I couldn't find it back on other photos, but the ascona 400 was replaced by the Manta 400 during the season to be able to score points in the championship (only Gr.B cars could score in the chamionship from 1983 to 1986), then I suppose they had already put the Ascona into this group not to be able to score only half a season...
problem is that there is so much mud on the cars in Safari... I cannot see the Gr.b circle on the doors !!
I will go on searching pic to confirm my point of view.
anyway that won't change anything at the moment in the building.
update to come, maybe tonight. I've started the sintofer work !
Phil
