I cannot confirm that the Woolley car is 55210, but I can believe that he no longer owns the T55. Local rumour is that Clive Woolley did what many old, rich men do, he married a very beautiful young woman and, of course, it didn't last. The divorce was very ugly and very expensive, and some of the Woolley Bugattis were sold, including one he kept in England for European rallies.

As I said, these are not facts, merely rumours. We South Africans do love to gossip.

Beautiful photograph, congratulated for find

Were jackboots common wear for drivers?
