I thought I'd start sharing some of the outside cases that have come into the PHA archives. I believe I shared the story of the old PHA Fiat in Austraila...well, here is yet another case I have helped on:
Dear Mr. Mann,
I'm contacting you because your name was listed as the Historian on the PHA website.
I'm currently researching a Lotus Mk 6, owned and driven by William E. Klinck Jr. of Buffalo, NY, that was entered in the Giants Despair hill climb in 1955. It also raced in the Brynfan Tyddyn in July of 1955. I was wondering if this car was entered in other hill climbs and races during the 1955-1959 time period.
If so, does your organization have those race results and/or records and do you know of any photographs from that time period that might show this particular car. I saw from the webpage that the PHA was started in 1963 so if you don?t have records and photos going back that far, where might I find them?
Any help or leads would be very much appreciated.
I was able to assist inform the folks that in fact that car did compete at Giant's and Brynfan Tyddyn road race.... I also was able to supply some text and a photo covering the car at the '55 event.
