Markec sent me this cool clipping from Auto Action, December 1985, and I figured it'd be a great start to a thread on old race car ads. Go ahead and add to it as you see fit.

Here is a closer view of the top half, which includes Terry Hooks Lola T610.
Heres one I scanned from Sports Car World in 1962, for the hoards of Humpy Holden racers.
Also from 1962, Milano GT kits.
Steve, I dont think this is a good idea looking at all these old ads, and the prices being asked!!!! A bloke might feel like jumping off the bridge.............
Our very own Roaring Season member, Dave Silcock, selling off one of his Jags, in 1967. What was the price Dave?
Ha ha ha. Actually, you've probably owned most of the cars advertised on here anyway Gerald!Originally Posted by AMCO72
Jim Mullins A40 Allcomer.
Some UK bargains at John Dangerfields in Bristol, from 1968.
A brilliant and not terribly subtle ad for Owens Tyres.
Norm Beecheys Speed Shop. Sorry about the quality, this is on the back cover of an issue of The Australian Hot Rod Review from 1968, so pretty scuffed up.
Rodger Andersons BMW plus trailer.
I have a supply of material that will be looked at with this thread in mind, especially for sales that were being made by those at the sharp end of period racing. I always find for sale adds of interests just as background scenes of many photo's are of great interest.
These look neat
Anything with Gulf-Oil is cool
