Dear Dermot,
Many thanks for your message regarding the Turners you were associated with.
I
can confirm the registration number of the Robin Bryant car was indeed
RB 247 , The car an Austin 948cc from new - Most likely a MKI.
Unfortunately
I have no record of the Chassis Number for the car so can not confirm
the cars survival , other than a Turner carrying RB 247 is not known as
a survivor on the Turner register.
I can provide contact
details for a motorsport photographer from the 1960's who has some
images of Robin Bryant racing RB 247 at Aintree in 1960 should this be
of interest.
Thank you for filling in the history of the car
post 1960 and it's time in Northern Ireland which will be useful in
updating my archive on the car and I would be grateful if you can
update me on any additional feedback you may receive on the car.
Brian Nelson Registration Number AZH 377 Chassis Number 60-424
This
car is known to us as a survivor , residing with Turner enthusiast
Geoff Long in Eire - I am sure he would be interested in any memories
you may have of his car.
Trust this is of interest and I will keep
you posted if I manage to confirm the Chassis Number Identity of RB 247
or any additional information.
Best wishes
Russell Filby (Fellow anorak)
