A new mystery emerges….

Paul Blank found and shared this snippet from the local “The West Australian” newspaper, dated 21st July 1951

Now this raises a bunch of questions

  1. July is after the AGP race but before Harry’s death. Did he sell the car and not his wife/brother as we thought?
  2. Did MR Sharp really have it made to his specifications or was this just taking the car from race to street (bumpers, grill, lights etc)?
  3. Who is Mr Sharp?

Anyway, a great find and a new lead to follow (and yes, I have tried chasing the plate, cannot find details)
