Has anyone got any of Herb's European race results, bearing in mind he stopped racing his XK120 and Maserati in 1959??

BUMP, BUMP, BUMP!!

I don't know if I made this thread unclear about Herb; Herb is a family friend (lovely guy too!!) and I know about his racing history in the States (he was pretty damn good in a Jaguar XK120); but the reason for posting this was to find out about his European events??

I could ask Herb but I want to know from those that were there at the time (otherwise it's like asking my late Dad about his races - I'd prefer 3rd party accounts and then ask), so lets see some proper movement on this; it's not as though we can ask James Dean anymore (see; need some proper research!!)!!

1958 in an AC-Bristol fourth in class in two GT races, at Spa on his own and in the Rheims 12hrs with Mike Anthony. He may have raced elsewhere but that's all I could easily turn up

Does anybody have contact with Herb Jones? This is an old thread I had found. I recently acquired BEX279 1957 AC Bristol that was Herb's former car and I am researching its history. If anyone has any information please let me know.

 

Thanks,
