23 Mar UK-based Simon Moore visit to FMM

Following on from Ken Stewart’s visit to FMM back in January, UK-based Simon Moore and his wife Elly paid a visit in March. Once described as motoring’s Sherlock Holmes, amongst his many motoring and historical achievements, Simon is renowned for writing the definitive histories on vintage Alfa Romeos and Maseratis to which Ken made some valuable contributions. Simon and Elly regularly holiday in SA and make a point of visiting Ken and his wife Jenny and now include FMM in their itinerary. Simon and Elly joined Mike & Wendy Monk and curator Wayne Harley for an afternoon walk through the museum and chat about ‘old car stuff’ before heading for the airport to catch their flight home. MM
