Hi John, here are a few new ones for your collection. Kindly sent to me by Mark Quertier, and originally taken by Ian Peak, as part of a large South Island collection from Ian which I'll be sharing here in the coming weeks.
These photos are at Teretonga, where stock trucks and tip-trucks were regularly used as bring-your-own grandstands. I recall similar stands at Ardmore along the back straight .
John, I am amazed at these pics of the finds off your Monaro. In all the years I pieced the Tulloch Camaro together I only ever found one part off it, the crossram intake. I look forward to seeing the end result. It does reinforce the belief, never stop looking for that part.
The wheels look like American Racing. Cheers....
Sheesh, thats a tough one! The car in Cambridge colours had the fuel filler in the standard location, but as you've rightly said John, its relocation is the one thing that saved it from certain death, as thats how it was identified as being this car! Almost seems wrong to undo that.
Thats a real difficult one and something that might have to be discussed further with the powers to be. Shame to take it away as Steve commented you may have never found the car without it. Tough choice John.
John, Depending on the stamping, I wonder if the RR could be from a previous team or owner,
something like, but not necessarily " Rorison Racing" The 10/67 sure would link with a date.
I can't think of any Rorison cars that used then relinquished that size wheel, but it is possible they were already used if they are '67 made. One of the original owners may be able to shed some light.
