THE MASTER CRAFTSMEN: CROSTHWAITE AND GARDINER

摘要

An aluminium crankcase is being warmed gently by a blowlamp held by Ian Harold. It's the standard procedure for fitting wet liners into an alloy crankcase and obviously has to be done with great care - especially if the crankcase is from an original 1930s Auto Union grand prix car. Hogge Farm, Buxted, Sussex, has been the home since 1969 of Crosthwaite and Gardiner. It is the company to go to if you want your Silver Arrow fettled or if you want a replica built. For a reference, just ask Audi, because Crosthwaite and Gardiner has worked on all of the existing Auto Union GP cars. On top of that, Crosthwaite and Gardiner has created from scratch seven replica Auto Unions.
