Ignoring for a moment, the lovely Daytona, this was also taken on the road on which we lived, but this time about three quarters of a mile closer to town. This emporium was Frank Sytner's before he moved into the centre of town for many years. I remember well a car club evening at his city showroom when Frank Williams was the speaker. It seems that one of them managed to roll an Austin A40 in the city a few years earlier...
Frank has now moved out to the other side of town to an industrial estate on the fringe of the city. Frank of course, took part in the Wellington Street race in the BMW - that I still maintain, beat the Volvo... Frank's single seater was the one losing a wheel at Monaco this year on the start line when there was a false start by the Tyrrell and a McLaren came throough from row three.
