'Stan Matthews'

A montage of cars raced by Stan Matthews from 1968 - 1973.
In 1968 and '69, Andrew's father Doug Kitson was the mechanic on Stan Matthews' Ford Anglia
shown at the top of the painting. Stan then went into single seaters, starting in Formula Ford at
the Snetterton based Jim Russell racing drivers school. JRRDS also entered him in the
F100 sports car Championship before he progressed through Formula Ford to F3
and Formula Atlantic. Stan now gets his thrills on his Honda Fireblade on the roads around his
home in South Africa.  

Commissioned by Stan Matthews, Hermanus, South Africa.
