 A few weeks after his Daytona crash, Sheene bought himself this second-hand Rolls-Royce to cheer himself up. The famous personalised Barry Sheene racing plate followed. This picture was taken at the Match Races at Brands in April 1975. American rider Dave Aldana is the back seat passenger and the driver is Merv Wright, who moved from America to Britain to manage the Texaco Heron Team Suzuki squad the following year. If the picture had been taken a few minutes and few miles down the road it would have captured Aldana introducing the drivers of Kent to the American practice of mooning.
