PDL Racing had, I am told, 6 manifolds cast by Hamilton Jet to suit 4x Weber IDA carbs for the Ford 351C.
I am not sure if any were used?
A story I was told was that PDL were going to sell them to...
It does fit here, and I've got my copy!
An awesome book, I highly recommend it :)
You have your facts right camaroman.
I last saw the '67 as a rolling shell after Rob Kennard had sold to a guy in Amberley, North Canterbury.
From there is went to Palmerston North or thereabouts....
The black Arbuckles car, that Lawerence Bruce raced in OSCA; I guess that had/has origins in the Castrol GTX series too?
Did'nt Grant Silvester drive this car?
Yes, it had Ford SVO running gear; I remember it too.
What happened to the Mike Frtzgerald Capri; is it still around?
Have I understood it correctly; Was there a G7A in NZ?
The biggest problem I have always understood with the F3L was that the DFV was not suitable for endurance racing.
This was the story often...
That is neat!
It would have been an amazing day to have attended.
Thank you for posting.
You can only take people as you find them and I have always found Allan to be helpful and willing to assist.
He calls a spade a spade (nothing wrong with that).
We are all the richer for his...
Yes.
Hey Nick,
Great pictures! Thanks for posting.
I remember you dads Mustang before Rob Kennard had it.
When your dad ran it, did it have a Boss 302 or the Gurney Weslake powering it?
It had so much...
Sounds like its worth tracking down.
Thanks Steve.
Yes! He had the ex Kevin Haig etc '67 Mustang before Rob Kennard, running it in OSCA.
The last of Bob I remember hearing, he was building CART/IRL engines for Micheal Andretti years ago.
Just going through some of my PDL Mustang stuff, and came across a photo of PDL 1 and 2 together in their yellow/orange livery and it got me thinking.....
What engine combo would PDL 1 have been...
That's great information Paul.
And well written.
Thank you.
Rodney
Hey Paul it would be neat to hear more of the Weslake Chevy.
I remember it being for sale...the engine...years ago.
From memory it had been in a jet boat?
It is still in NZ somewhere, I remember...
A lot of history and a whole lot of memories to this car!
So the Vigurs Cortina is the same car as Bruce Bellis ran?
When did it get the Weslake headed Chevy?
Mark Donohue's "The Unfair Advantage" has got to be one of the most well written motor sport biographies I have read.
You could get a real feel for what Mark was doing (or trying to do), with enough...
Wow! Some great posts guys.
Anyone got anything on the Ford powered Formula 5000's?
From memory, Chris Amon drove a Lotus with a Boss 302.
Allan Moffat may have briefly too?
It's a shame they...
Was'nt the Sleepyhead Capri lost in a fire back in the day?
I seem to remember hearing that.
Neat photos!!
Rodney
Does it still have the 351C with Gurney Weslake heads?
Great Stuff!!
Cheers,
Rodney
Thanks Rod.
It would be appreciated. Rodney
