Crackin piece of history chaps. :thumbright:

I knew of the Kingston cars, did'nt know so many of you had owned them!!! 8-)

Would these of commanded a higher premium than a normal Yank 340 Cuda back in the day??

Or is it just the history and special order that made them more desirable??

The silver one is Graham Bloomfield's I believe, nats winner as Duncan said.
The red one, Bish's old one (?) was owned by Sean Adams at some time I think who also has the Donohue AMX. The red Cuda was originally gold.

All these cars will become tax exempt next month too!

That red cuda that RRunner posted was owned by John Challis (no, not Boycie from Fools & Horses!) when I took that pic at Billing (cant remember the year off hand, prob 91ish?)
