Eric Kydd Offy

[bobjeffreson]

For people who can remember!!!!
For some time now I've been talking with Neil Morrison in Florida USA. Neil at one stage owned one of, if not the most famous midget in Australia....the Eric Kydd Offenhauser that was being built for Jeff Freeman, until his death in 1965.
The midget ended up in America in a private collector's hands. Last weekend Neil went to Pheonix Arizona to check out his old car.
Isn't this just a beautiful bit of gear!

Here's the car on its last run in Australia at Goulburn Speedway.
The year is 1989.....just listen to that Offenhauser. The sweetest sounding motor ever built, I suggest.
10 of those around the Sydney Showground was like ear porn, to a young fan like me!
