I hope this isn't limited to cars......
For my money, I would offer up the Suzuki of Mr Barry Sheene.

I've searched but can find one in colour i've been trying to find the Rally Cross xtrac Escort, STP i think of maybe Will Gollop? Could be wrong with the driver and STP but do remember that as a kid on a saturday and being very impressed, that was before the days of the RS200's and the like joining in having been banned from rallying. |

For me its anything in Martini scheme (white or silver, but not green or red) Gulf colours, Rothmans, Sunoco blue and yellow or just to add something different. I think this colour scheme used by BriSCA legend Stuart Smith between 1968 and 1976 was iconic.

Could be wrong with the driver and STP but do remember that as a kid on a saturday and being very impressed, that was before the days of the RS200's and the like joining in having been banned from rallying. Drawn a blank on the Run Baby Run Escort of Brodie. Found a few B/W ones but for such a famous car its odd they are no colour ones. The STP cars were run by John Welsh I think. He had a tie up with Martin Schanche and brought his old cars from him, this one http://rupert8766.fotopic.net/p5737430.html is the X Trac Escort before Welsh run it when Schanche was still using it. Schanche also tried his had at Le Mans a couple of times driving an Argo. Not sure he had the right mind set for long distance races given his firey nature. He ended up as a Norwegen MP Other great Rally X where the 4 wd Beetles and Porsche's the best was Alamaki's one, that if remember correctly had an engine from a 935 and was stunning. One that always impressed me was a 4 wd BMW 320 of Peit Dam. it was brutal. |

George Polly used to live not more than a mile from were I live in Pound Hill. We used to see his car parked up on a trailer in his drive way.
He was sponsored by Billy Bridges, the local car breakers.

Simple but effective, for 30 years, irrespective of whether it was on a sportscar or touring car; classic or modern; BMW, Porsche or Alfa. Where have they gone :  .....and looks good in 1:43 scale as well !  |
