Glen,



It was the last AMBRO he built, while also restoring a historical home 
in Elizabethtown, NY, into a B & B. He initial drove it on the street, 
but was encouraged by Rosemary Remington to return to racing.



The body was, indeed, an early body and unbuilt when he found it on a 
tour of the US in an MGB, with Rosemary in the late 80s



Bill  willed the car to his son, Robert, in Steamboat Springs, CO. 
Robert ran the Ambro for a few years, sometimes with the support of 
Jack & Joe. Robert painted the car Blue.  



The AMBRO is now owned by Robert Stadel in eastern PA (?) and is 
supported by Rich Rock and Bill Dewar (Triumph Rescue.



Robert Ames nows runs a Porsche.



Rosemary still runs the B & B in Elizabethtown.



Mr. Stadel, ran the AMBRO at the Glen.



Which reminds me, I think that I have a Third Place Award for Mr. 
Stadel in Triumph Specials.

So I'm looking at this photo that I took a few years ago at Mid-O, of

Mr Ames & #57 green with white stripe. He was paddocked next to us, it

was very nice to meet him & we=2
0had some interestion conversations over

the weekend.

Question- who owns this car now? It was an early one.

Just curious

Thanks

Glen
