Genesis 0 Posted June 14, 2004 Anyone got anything on him at all, infos or pictures? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Al Stewart 398 Posted June 14, 2004 I must admit I always thought Bill Matthews was an Aussie. He joined West Ham in 1947 and a Speedway News of the time confirms he was Canadian, brought over by Eric Chitty. I can actually picture his face (I know that doesn't help you) and I have got a picture somewhere, will keep looking. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Al Stewart 398 Posted June 14, 2004 Usually when I have lost something it stays lost but I have actually managed to find my Bill Matthews photograph. I have put it here: Bill_Matthews Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Al Stewart 398 Posted June 24, 2004 I'll spend some time looking for things asap. Just as a matter of interest, why Bill Matthews? He wasn't here long. A relative? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Genesis 0 Posted June 24, 2004 Cheers Al. I'm trying to get some information together for someone who contacted me about anything I had - or could get - on Bill Matthews as he is being inducted to the Canadian Motor Sport Hall of Fame this year, so any time you may find to look for anything would be ppreciateds and literally anything you have also. Thanks again for you time and interest. Nick Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
