1964 Monte Carlo Rally

Little Things Mean a Lot

June 29, 2026 By pete

By Pete Vack

“Back in 2015, VeloceToday’s editor Pete Vack came searching for that fellow Diggens, and in particular an illustration of Jean-Pierre Wimille. Seems that he remembered my work for the British magazine, Thoroughbred and Classic Cars. And that was many years ago, in the 1970s!” – Rodney Diggens

From this relationship developed a three-part series about Rodney’s life in the UK, published in 2024, from growing up in London during the Blitz, to becoming a very well known artist, to working with the great team at T&CC.
