Tom Chatfield -- Barlow Simca Special-MG

(10-23-08)  From Michael Jacobsen: 

"This Terminal Island photo includes another rare shot of the second Barlow Simca when owned by Tom Chatfield and carrying a sleeved and blown MG XPAG engine -- perhaps it was the engine Miles built for his R1 Special before he got the factory job."

(10-28-08)   From Peter McKercher:

"Here's another shot of the Long Beach race, showing a better view of the Simca Special. As a guess, I think the most visible Singer driver is Dick van Laanen (he usually had Vaughan Singer Motors "SINGER" plates)."
