Re: Rex Law's Redline Coaches
So much was happening during those years Richard, and I had no first hand knowledge of Bill and Doreen's early involvement with Redline. I must get hold of a copy myself....many thanks for sharing that little bit of history.

Upper shot is the Superior bodied Ford R226 No 110 or 111.
Middle shot is another Superior bodied R226.
Lower shot is a Watt Bros R226, maybe ex-Redline No 88.
