I do have a very poor pic of Vernon's SS100 and a reasonable pic of Pycroft SS100 at what I believe is this event.
I am very interested in obtaining copies of race or rally reports of European Hillclimbs and rallies up to 1960 which included SS100's and there were a few specifically Switzerland where there were several hillclimbs inc SS100's.
Also can anyone point us in the dirction of a more complete biography of Paul Pycroft I believe he worked for a year or so prewar in Switzerland for Nestle?
