Mine was the 1983 James Hardie, stayed up all night watching old Falcons change colours and fell asleep about 3pm and missed the finish.

Gricey won a round in 1980 and the car was involved in a big crash, Waneroo IIRC, maybe written off ?

I'm too scared now.

David Jackson, motorsport enthusiast, model car collector, and mans who's bum is now too big for his seldom used race suit.

I can only dream in 1/43rd

I was at Amaroo for the M3s Sydney debut & remeber the amazing noise the JPS cars made as they came towards you. The beauty of Amaroo being you could just walk up to the open carport that they used...

For a second I thought you had been in my office book case Steve, but I don't have the Trans Am book. I'll have to let my wife read this, she thinks I'm the only one...

Rod I cant say, it was out of our sight. My memory is they stopped the race & the circuit was closed for a long while. My friend & I walked around the circuit & found the car off the track to the...

Loved going to Amaroo. Sitting up on the rocks down at Stop/go, then walking over to the carports & checking out the cars. The JPS cars were always immaculate. Was there the day Romano crashed up the...

Is the Tindall Torana the ex Gary Rogers car ? I was at that meeting BTW. The good old days, just car racing, no stunt bikes or XXXX Angels.

Off the top of my head Baz was on TEN & MR on Ch 7, but by no means am I saying that's 100 % right.

I didn't think they had done commentary together ?

Models ? Nah, what a waste, oops hang on,

Bjorn Kjer, author of a recent transporters book is a major contributor to the Transporters thread on TNF, as no doubt many of you are aware. He claims DSJ is wrong about the vehicles origin that he...

Apparently there is some contention as to the origins of this vehicle. There are claims that it isn't ex Maserati, but that Reventlow bought it new.

In the AMC article on the Total car, Glen Walsmley, the chap who the Bowdens purchased the car from, is quoted as saying that Reilly had swapped the Top loader & T-10 over when he owned both cars &...

Yes of course your right as the gearboxes were swapped over at one stage & that's how Bowdens were able to restore the Total car to original spec as they purchased both cars.

I believe the John Riley Mustang is the ex Geoghegan Total car.

As long as you paint the Alfa in the Elfin scheme I'll come & polish it for you.

Come on Powerball.

Steve I was hanging around Winton a bit in those days & that was the general "chat" amongst the boys, a red Commodore IIRC, but I'm only going on 20 y.o. memories.

I remember seeing the bare shell sitting on the ground outside of Doherty's shed near Seymour in the early 90s, looking very sad.
