Phil Remington RIP

[at the beach]

I have just learned that pioneer racer Phil Remington has passed away. He was 92.

Phil was perhaps best known for his work at Shelby American (where he played a small role on the Shelby Tiger prototype and later went to the UK to engineer the replacement of the BW T-10 with the Ford Top Loader in Mk1s.

However we should not forget his Reventlow Scarabs or the Gurney Eagles .

He always had a twinkle in eyes. He was a great fabricator, engineer and a gentleman. He will be missed.

R.I.P. I met him at the SAAC convention in Fontana about 11 years ago, nice man.

Didn't know any of that about him, I only recall reading about his work on the Edwards America car.
