I think the footage starts with the 6hr meeting so it's probably Archibald/Shelly in the silver Jag and Ward/Coppins in the white one. Then the December meeting which was the Morrari's debut (and...

Judy Durham was a member of The Seekers and therefore Australian
It was Alison Durbin who sang I Have Loved Me a Man
That list is legitimate, although it combines several championships
In 1966 and 1967 however the main saloon championship was the NZRDC series, won respectively by Dave Simpson and Robbie...
Not quite
Dave Simpson won the NZRDC Championship (for allcomers), which didn't have capacity classes
Ivan Segedin won the Over 1300 class of the separate MANZ Gp2 Championship
No.12's the one you should have concentrated on...
From memory, I think it was are-creation of Hanuman
I was going tp say a Darl'Mats Peugeot, though the grille looks wrong.
The Darl'Mats were available to the public, BTW, so not really a special
Romulus, Remus and Hanuman :)
Godfrey Paape from Dunedin with the A90 Atlantic?
Bill Southby (Ernie's mate) with the Model A roadster?
Crichton-Stuart, please! In his racing days he was Earl of Dumfries. He didn't inherit the Marquis of Bute title until the 1990s
Or more correctly Don Alfonso Antonio Vicente Blas Ángel Francisco...
Yes, a six-cylinder model, reg BN1864
Then there were Jimmy and Ross Stone who were related - to each other, but not to Ray or Bill
Speaking personally, I'm loving them:)
I'm sure it was...
At least this forum seems to have avoided what some others allow - ie, noms de plume of real people (Jim Clark, Keke Rosberg etc)
Are you sure that's 1979? The JR3 was rebuilt as the Cuda 5, incorporating ground-effect technology, by Adrian Reynard in 1980
That's certainly my understanding
Oxton raced the Tui in the last two 1977 Gold Star rounds - Baypark 10/04 (2nd to McMillan) and Manfeild 17/04 (first from McMillan)
Formula Atlantic was adopted by North American clubs, mainly in...
Don't think I've ever seen any taken that late. Plenty with earlier owners over the previous nine years though
Might have got my years wrong but, yes, same car. I remember Buchanan running it with the headrest but not sure about Wiseman (more distant memory:) )
I recall the Orchid as being light blue. I'm pretty sure that white and red car is Andrew Buchanan's Buckler (ex-Mayo/Gill)
Cookie's T300 was the ex-Bartlett car, HU16
It was only after its destruction that parts of it were combined with HU3 and/or HU4
That's interesting, Steve
There was a report, possibly in Motorama of a grasstrack meeting at Wahoroa or Raglan which mentioned "J Ganley (Buckler)" in the results. I once asked Howden about this...
You're right, for the Sports Car Trophy Race
However for the Sports Car Handicap (page 43 in your programme) Ganley's Ford Special is No.136; 124 is McLennan's 'Picalo' Riley, which was seen in...
Only the one in Kelvin Brown's book, which shows what appears to be a standard AMW body with twin aeroscreens
The Ganley Ford 10 Special was, IIRC, Jarvie-bodied
In those days a lot of cars of...
Impressive list, OF, but the car Howden Ganley's father built, and the son raced once or twice, was a Ford 10 Special, not a Buckler, regardless of what contemporary reports might have said:)
