Hi Dewi,

Thats not the car. The one I referred to has never been raced and is a Team Shelby replica. I've sent you the sellers details.

Cheers

Firstly I'd like to congadulate all involved on a fantastic couple of weekends at the Ganley Festivle Hampton Downs in Jan. My family and I were lucky enough to view the action from an upstairs...

I saw this in the flesh at the Skope meeting, and being a Timaru lad have heard of its build over the past few years. My understanding is that's its as close to the original as you could reasonsbly...

Steve, that would only be to learn what lines NOT to follow... (-:

Nice pic Dale.

The tribute car is looking great. Are you going to have time to paint the centres of the minilites black?

Cheers
Kyle.

Dale, Get rid of all that dynamat! Or is this a new way to handicap cars for HMC.....lol

Kyle.

Hey George,

Thanks for the info. I figured someone must have built a tribute car. Just a pity it's not racing. Would be great to see it in with the Cuda running HMC. More importantly though just...

Cheers Steve,

Interesting attitude by Ford given the growing importance of winning these races at the time. You'd think reliability would be top of their list seeing the race duration. Hard to win...

Thanks Dewi, great pics again. I was thinking of a red 69 fastback that used to race transam. I have seen the 69 camaro race in the past with transam. Tough looking car! Look at the size of the field...

Hey Martin,

Good to see you hooked onto this site. Be careful, it can be a great time waster!...hope to see you back out racing soon.

Cheers
Kyle

Hey Dewi,

What year Stang are you and your father building? I know the ex Wilson mustang you talked about but have not seen it run against Russell Wrights 68 or Fraser Ross's 67. The times these...

Steve,
My understanding is that Ford wanted a colour that stood out more for colour TV than what they ran in 69. The rational behind school bus yellow was that it was cheap and stood out! I believe...

Hi John. I think you may be referring to the 68 season. In 69 they ran Lincoln Continental discs all round.

Parnelli Jones has often said they (ford) would have won the 69 series if on equal rubber to Donohues Camaro. Firestone must have got something sorted for 70 because the cars had to weigh 3200 lbs up...

Correct on the colour and 69/70 upgrade but M stands for 4v 351 not 390 which had reinforced shock towers like the bosses and cobra jets.

Can't wait to see this car take to the track! What's the intended 1st race meeting?

There was mention it may not be competitive due to front end weight etc. As a fan that's just fine. Smoking the...

I'd agree with the music comments so far, but more importantly applaud your enthusiasm for these cars Dewi.

This car you and your father are building sounds like a fantastic project. You said it...

Hey Steve here's a few pics with your weapon of choice. I've got other close ups but not of the quality of whats already been posted.

Cheers

Like Parnelli Jones said. "everybody behind me are fast, anyone in front of me is cheating!" (-:

Hey Steve,

Nobody ever cheats in motorsport.....

The 1st few laps of the last race. And no I don't only take shots of mustangs, though the last pic may indicate I'm a
little bias. I'm just waiting for some speed to rub off on my one....

Thanks...

A few more shots of a very memorable weekand at Lakeside.

Great to see this irreplacable car being thrown around lakeside in under 60 sec!

Hi all,

My first post, but hardly my first visit to this forum.

As a mad muscle car fan and a Kiwi across the ditch I'd like to thank all involved and congratulate all on a brilliant two...
