Hi All,

I'm researching the history of the Reliant Sabre in motorsport. In 1963 a Reliant Sabre was entered into the C.O.I. rally driven by A.T. Fisher & R. Crellin which finished 3rd in the GT class (over 1300cc).

I've never been able to find any old photos or and entry list to find out what the car race number was.

The Reliant Sabre registration number was 42 ENX which is still owned by a good friend of mine.

I would be for ever grateful if anyone has an entry list showing the race number or even better has any photographs of the Sabre on the rally that show the race number so I can fill in the missing data in my archives I have so far.

Kindest regards
