Steve, that Kaditcha is under restoration in Sydney.
The open wheeler in post #14 is Gary Campbell's Provincial Motors Elfin 600B, thanks for sharing the photo.
And I believe it is highly likely that the red Falcon with the light blue stripe between Goss and Johnson is Gary Wilmington (post #8).
Thanks to all who been viewing this thread and those who have contacted me regarding images of their respective cars, it is pleasing to know that my photos have been of use after all this time.

Another image from Amaroo Park, 1977. Peter Hopwood in his Lotus Elan. He was a spectacular car on the track, in a very nimble car and gave larger capacity cars a run for their money.

The Gardos/McLaren M8 of Barry Singleton also in the Amaroo Park pit area in April 1977. I have heard that apparently the car is now accepted as a McLaren and is in the Mathews Collection in the USA....
In the pit area at Amaroo Park, continuing the 1977 Group A sports car theme, is Tony Dale's very sleek looking Elva Ford with Tony Roberts SR2 parked alongside.

Paul McCurdy was driving a car called the Manx Alfa at Amaroo Park on 29th May 1977. I don't have any technical detail about the Manx Alfa nor of its history. If you look closely you will see that it...
Back into the photo album again - two images of Greg McCombie's Lotus 23B at Amaroo Park in
1977. Greg carried the Chokito wrapper scheme across to his Matich in later times. It would be...
There were a few sedans there too so I will pop them in for a bit of balance.
This one is Terry Shiel in his Mazda RX-7:

Not quite sure who is driving this Mazda RX-7 but it appears...
Thanks Bondy!
A few more photos taken on the same day, this time big-banger sporties. To say that these cars were impressive is a understatement, especially seeing them being driven with great...
Stepping along to May 1983 at Amaroo Park in the wet (just for variety!). I will need help to identify the cars and drivers in this set of photos - I don't have the program from the meeting so if...
And all in together...

I might pop a little F5000 moment in here, it's all too quiet. I am sure that you guys can name this gentleman...

Still the same day, with a bit of stronger sun showing through, Jim Richards looking fine in the Sidchrome Falcon with Colin Bond in pursuit. This image is probably a lap before the image showing Jim...
And in the same race, Colin Bond does his best in the Falcon to remain ahead of O'Brien in the HDT L34 Torana.

Steve, I can't add any more information regarding the Henderson Corvette, it was an interesting and unusual car to see at Amaroo at the time. Plenty more photos to come, does anyone have preferences...
