this pic was taken at York in 84. Looking good in the hands of the B&H Autocraft duo. It was around very long though .. haven't heard of the car since. Any ideas?

That brings back some memories. My dad has a beautiful picture of Tender Trap on his Villa wall in Cyprus, he worked alongside Dave and Dennis, Gerry Andrews during the stones finer years. He is still in contact with Dave and it was a sad loss when Dennis passed away. I will try and get a picture and attach next time.

Here's a picture and an article of the whole team from the Oct 73 issue of 'National Drag Racer'

Hi, my Dad still hasn't seen this forum as I am still trying to explain the interent to him (ha ha) but I will have a look for more pitcures at the weekend as I am sure he has family photos with the cars in them somewhere. My kids think it's really funny to see their Grandad looking so young!

is that hemi hunter that roy wilding now ownes?

Yes. After the Stones it was owned by Doug Bond, Mark Purslow, Mike Kason and finally Roy.

Without getting anyone’s hopes up, I cannot offer any new info regarding the whereabouts of Tender Trap. However, records at Companies House show B & H Autokraft LTD were officially dissolved/wound up in August 2008. I’m guessing that the surnames of the two company directors; John Betts & Trevor Hirst made up the title of the company. Mr Betts is still listed in an active capacity in the Doncaster area, so perhaps that remains a good starting point for nostalgia sleuths?

Just to add a bit more on this car, I remember it being driven by Dave Lee Travers (The radio DJ for younger readers!). DLT was a member of the Stones team for about a year. One meeting had bit of rain and the track was still a bit damp, DLT was very wary of driving the car (in Pro Stock I think). Given its short wheelbase that was quite sensible!
