Has anyone else come across this tribute to the late Roger Perry by Hawk Cars?

That's a great tribute to the late Roger Perry. I hadn't seen it before and thank you for posting it. Two photos attached, one of Roger standing beside the car just after he had bought it in from Germany in 1979 and another, a few months later on UK registration plates.

I remember an article in Motor magazine from the early 1980's, featuring Roger Perry and how he used his Stratos as daily transport, clocking up considerable mileage. I've looked back through my old collection of magazines for this article and never been able to find it again. If anyone has a copy, it is an interesting read and I would be pleased to see it reproduced for everyone on here.

There is something in one of the kit car magazines this month or last month. Within a Hawk Cars article.
 And I have prepared something of my own for VL. Also concerning Hawk Cars.

The recent article was in March/April tkc mag (Track Kit Custom) which may still be in the shops and is very good, 11 pages long.
