Editor's Note:
Darrell Mountjoy has returned from a fantastic tour of the 2002 Goodwood Revival and the inaugural Le Mans Classic . He was invited to participate in these events because of his stewardship of the fabulous Lister Le Mans Tiger ADU-180B (#9). He published his story of the acquisition of one of the two Le Mans Tiger race cars in his Article "On Tiger Tales & Other American Folk Lore". See our September 2003 Calendar for the Goodwood Revival - 2003 & Drive a classic Morgan tour offerSteve

Restoration complete, N� 9 enters the Lufthansa facility at LAX for air freight to Heathrow, via Frankfurt.

Safely at Heathrow, N� 9 awaits de-palleting.

N� 9 is collected from Heathrow and loaded aboard Dave Smallridge's ultra-cool "Chasestead Sunbeam Challenge" trailer.

N� 9 is finally able to relax in a pleasant Surrey afternoon where it will remain for a few days at the home of Ruth and Graham Vickery.
