Colin Ham's 8mm Race Footage now on Youtube
(Preview)
You would think that I am pretty far from the center of all things Warwick given my roots are here in Southern California, but it turns out that my neighbor Colin Ham, who's father was the Chairman of the Board for the Warwick company, found some 8mm film footage that he took following his dad around the r...

J A Pearce
(Preview)
Hi all
Does anyone know what happened to J A Pearce?
He once had a lot of Peerless and Warwick parts after Mullard & co finished selling the post production cars in the 1960's. He also did a lot of work on my car in the mid to late 1960's.

Did the second car have the roof ripped off or did I just imagine it? I thought I once saw an advert in Motorsport referr...

Warwick GT - Photo Gallery
(Preview)
As a former Warwick owner (465 PMB No.15) I found it difficult to find out very much information about the marque. So I have decided to set up a method of collecting together all the bits of random Warwick photos and information on the internet in an accessible format. Yes, I'm aware of GDPR rules and re...

The Great Warwick Race
(Preview)
As you know I posted some sad news about Colin Ham (Ron Ham's son) earlier this year. Last weekend I was helping his wife sort through some of his Warwick materials. Terrible work, but it had a silver lining. We discovered a race program for Rufforths May 1961. This is the race that Colin mentioned i...

Lawrence Tune Peerless
(Preview)
Lawrence Tune bought a dozen or so unfinished cars and sold them with tuned engines I believe. But I seem to remember one was produced for Chris Lawrences dad with a shortened body/chassis. Can anyone shed some light on this ?

Update on Irish Peerless V8
(Preview)
Hi all! It's been a long summers with much activity so I've been a little slow on giving updates on the last V8 car. I believe I had passed on the news that due to my starting a new business venue and also another toy car in my garage I passed on the project to a good friend of mine from the TVR club. Me has com...

Paint colors
(Preview)
My Phase 2 bodywork is nearly done. Hopefully it will soon be time to choose the paint color. It was originally a dark green - seems darker and not as shiney as BRG. Usually I prefer to stick with original colors, but the shade doesn't seem to do much for highlighting the lines of the Peerless. Does any...

Spotted a Peerless
(Preview)
Hi, My wife and I were walking through a mid Wales town and spotted the back of a silver Peerless poking out of an open garage. I'd never seen a Peerless before and so a quick MOT check showed it was a 1959 silver Peerless with the last MOT being passed in 2013. Googling afterwards bought me here to learn abo...

Interesting pic just come up on the facebook site
(Preview)
No idea where this is but I'm guessing somewhere in the UK. Looks to be relatively recent given the houses in the background and the alloys on the car. Note the green car too.
