I thought these links to John Wilson's photos might be of interest to  
some of you. John Wilson is a Motorsport photographer on the west  
coast. Unfortunately, there were no captions so I tried to identify  
the drivers/cars I could;

It was really kind of John to pull these Sunbeam images from his  
archives and post them to the internet. He sells these images, too.
