We’ve now updated our Emblem Sports Car Pimperne gallery archive with more photos of cars Don helped build and style during his time with the specialist Ferrari garage in Pimperne, Blandford Forum during the 1980’s.

Tim Bate who now runs the reincarnated Emblem Sports Cars in Bournemouth has kindly allowed us to use some of their old pictures on our site who were in fact given to him by the late John Woodfield’s wife Maria, the original Emblem Sports Cars (UK) proprietors from the 1970’s through to the late 1980’s.

The Ferrari 512BB “Boxer” above completes our existing collection of photos we already had of this modified supercar so it’s really cool we now have a good quality photo of the finished vehicle.

We’ve also added more photos of Prince Naif’s customised Ferrari 308 GTS QV. In fact this car came back to Emblem a year later for more modifications, air intakes on the lower rear wheel arch were added amongst other subtle changes. You can now see both sets of changes in our updated photo album.

The Saudi’s loved their customised supercars and so we’ve added a small collection of Mercedes 500 SEC AMG photos from the mid 1980’s. Dad tells me they had to send away most of the interior to be gold plated! Although I’m not sure how much bodywork modifications there were on this car

To cap of this round of updates we’ve also added a couple of photos of a Lamborghini Miura restoration Dad did at Emblem did during this period.
