My Uncle Ric passed away on the 8th of October, on a motor racing level he was involved with Hesketh and various cars that had Rizla or Penthouse sponsorship through his contacts in advertising. I enjoyed listening to his tales about James Hunt, Graham Hill etc from his time in the paddock during the 70s/80s. He designed the livery on the Hesketh 308D and 308E and originally hand painted them on himself. If any of you reading the forum knew him message me and i'll forward the details of his memorial service.

I'm very sorry for your loss. :-(

As a burgeoning sign man and painter myself in those days, I will add that I loved his work!

RIP.
