Couldn't find evidence of this being covered on PH, pardon me if it already has.

I stumbled upon a news article from April this year reporting the death of a man called Brent Jones who worked at TVR, and loved Gary Numan...

Most people will instantly know who this is.

Brents legacy remains in the infamous 'graffiti' on TVR body shells he worked on, a distinctive nod to his Gary Numan obsession.


He was quite active on PH for a while under the username jagged halo.

A sad loss, but sounds like he went out doing what he loved most, which is the best any of us can hope for.

Yes April time he left us I believe, I never knew him but recall it was covered on Facebook including an email from Gary Numan regarding his car graffiti. Seemed a genuine character.

Sad news. The Numan logo always made me smile, though sadly I never found one on my old cerbera.

RIP Brent.

Thats sad news. I think I met him? at the London thunder event in 2006 when TVR cars paraded through London asking the govt to help save TVR. There were a number of staff/ex staff present that day.

His graffiti legacy lives on

Never met him, but two of my Wedges were graced with his art work.
