Not my choice of colour scheme, but at least it echoes the original period livery. I believe it is now going matt black.

The ex-rallycross car that Block bought was the old Trevor Hopkins car. Block sold the ex-Hopkins car recently to Terry Maynard, who is currently in the process of restoring it to use in the Retro Rallycross Championship. Bizarrely Block had it for around 2 years and didn't touch it, I read that the project was delayed as they couldn't get a sequential box for it, but that made no sense to me as there is a Quaife option available and any half-clued up RS200 builder could have told him that.
Not Swedish krona, but Norwegian, big different there
