Black Se7ens...


Recommended Posts

In my opinion one of the prettiest 7's I have ever seen is the restored Hamblin 7.5 as pictured in Ortenburgers book. I would love to see color shots of it. Has anyone got any other pictures of it?

Bruce, I know you have a great collection of photos, any chance you have a copy of this car?

Cheers-

I agree with you Dermot. I don't have my copy handy, but if I remember correctly it was restored with partially painted/partially polished bodywork (with the paint extending to cover the top of the aly Series 1 nose), wobbly webs, Dunlop racing tires, and external rear trailing arms. Sorry, I don't have any recent photos of that car after restoration, but there are a few historic photos on the web. Here's a link on the SimpleSeven site to the ex-David Porter car: http://www.simplesevens.org/porter.htm

 

And an old black and white image:
