Topic: Barrett's #96- Solved - Consul Special aka Rhodes Special

I found the exact same photo on-line but without any caption or details.
I scanned entry lists for No.18 and that was my first guess.
Perhaps it's the Consul Special 1500cc of J. Baylis?

We have a winner!

(This is information from online so obviously fallible, I'll be happy to be corrected if anyone knows for sure)

The Consul Special, also known as the Rhodes Special. Ford Consul engine and VW front end.

Time to reflect on how one can address that I think.........
Anyhow, perhaps if I reach that exalted position, I can express a few thoughts of my own
