Gard 27 of Jamie Gard
I actually have the name of this Australian Formula Ford's creator as Kim Gard (not Jamie), but still close enough to gain the point, so well done.

Typo on my part. Should have been Jaime Gard.

I've never seen a reference to Kim Gard in relation to this car, but if you do a Google search for "Jaime Gard" and "Gard 27", you'll find multiple sources tying Jaime Gard to the Gard 27, as well as to the later Gardos cars.

But no matter--thanks for the point!

Well, 'Kim' is not a million miles from 'Jim' who may also have been called 'Jamie' by some.
