White as in my prior example of this design Steve ?
This is Bel Air 3 , not the first . I recommend a book "The Boss" which his nephew loaned me , great reading Hec Green was his engine man .
Bel Air 3 in fact , 2.5 V6 and 114 mph was the speed .
Thank You Grant and Steve ,
Just fantastic to see these images . My first knowledge of Ernie was from about 65 onward ( as a younger fella )

What a neat looking DAF !
Autorama " 67 "
Not a " Roundy " racer as such .
Richard was a regular campaigner at Ruapuna back then . I remember being told that it was based on a real Lotus shell .

Great shots , liking the HB Viva , makes a nice change .
All the best guys , especially Steve in his wisdom to create and maintain this time consuming site . PS Steve , will you be down for the Skope again soon ? ............. Regards Bazza .
Two ZZ Top members on vacation .
Thats him Rod , the only one i know who could get away with smokin a durrie on pit wall !
You are on the money there Tony it was built up there , I think the Consul was the 315 of Derek Mitchell and was Holden engined , will confirm with JT .
