    Don't know the cars but the old Valiant looks a bit unhappy.

    Top pic is Mike Fitzgibbon Falcon in Pre-65s at Timaru, raced 84-86, according to a writeup in the August 2009 Pre-65 newsletter. His son Peter races a Pre-65 Farina A40 today, according to a post on the Pre65SI Facebook page.

    gokiwi, you crack me up.LOL For the sake of the North Islanders. Dave Yeoman used to supply the sound systems to Ruapuna and Timaru race tracks and to the Ruapuna drags. He was about 95 not out, 5' 2" and 40 kilograms. Hunched over with this big shock of white hair. His vehicle was a 40's Chevvy panel van with the California bleached look paint, invariably with a couple of speakers stored on the top. I know the hot rodders used to give him a hard time about the van. rumour has it that he used to sleep in the back whenever he had his systems set up. A real icon from the late 70's, early 80's:

    He also did the sound system at Wigram. Wouldn't be surprised if he attended more of them than most competitors.

    That'd be the Mk 111 of Stan Baird, he used to race that before his Escort.

    Buckler? Not a "Mistral"-they had 2 distinctive vents on the side of each front guard.
