I did have but can I find them?? It went to the states to live with another plum Hemi Challenger from memory. The owner sent me pics, but they are safely stored where I can't find them.

They are both owned by the same guy as far as I know, in the US. Can't remember his name but he sent me these pics many moons ago, soon after he imported the UK car.
Richard Ward may know more.

Hi Dunc
I’ve got lots of pictures of the car when It was in the UK. The car was restored by Stuart Valance, he painted it Plum Crazy. It went through a few owners before ending up with Richard Ward. I rebuilt the motor when it belonged to a chap called Ian Giles. It was featured in a magazine at one point (probably got it somewhere) and we had it on display at Goodwood outside the drivers hospitality tent alongside the Hemi Cuda that ended up with Jim Wilson. I think that was around 1997. Almost certainly got some pictures if I can find them !
