Lady A Opii

I have been alerted by an `old school`participant that in `little nige`s` gallery is the attached pic of Laura Lucy ,which looks very much like ex-Pobjoy Mint,ex-Sundancer,ex-Robert Bruce,ex-Miss Dunhill.A short while back Adam Younger made reference to this,which at the time didn`t ring true,but the camera never lies (non digital that is).I never saw the thing ,so I wonder how many races it appeared at.Nige thinks the pic could have been at Poole,which looks feasible.The year is 1986.
Next question is,where is it now.Maybe the shead scrapyard at Gibralter?At least Miss Enfield 2 has escaped that location for the time being and is promoting itself in a car rag.

Something tells me it was running small blocks but I could be wrong - in fact I just found the '86 Guernsey entry list and it lists it as having twin mercruisers rated at 400hp a piece so that is probably right. Anyone got more photo's??
