Hi Steve
I looked after Shekhar Mehta's 180B SSS servicing in Dunedin during the 19?? rally. Nice person.
Did you get the car with the trick ali block...think it was taken out before the team went back to Japan.

Thanks powder
And apologies Carl - you can see where my confusion came from
A few shots of GG 42 I located over the weekend
Hi Steve I rebuilt the motor for Paddy Davidson and it only had an iron block but the full FIA cylinder head was stil there it was A verry strong motor and went like STINK Jamie A
Some more photos from start line as they may be of interest
Fantastic photos! Makes me want to go rallying again........................................
Actually I'm wrong. There is a picture in the David Thompson book of Vallis in the Polysplice Corolla which is a 20 series but not one of the 3 mentioned earlier.
If you'te talking about Bert's car Crunch, that was a KE25, these are TE27's.
I see there's an RX3 that rallied in the late 70's (in pieces) that appeared on Trademe yesterday, looks like an interesting car with most of the original bits still with it.

This weekend is 40years since the 1972 RAC Rally of Great Britain. As you can see I have done my best to make the car now in 2012 the same as in 1972.

Lee, do you have any other shots of that rally, be good to see.
I was working that weekend so only managed a few shots at Claudelands.
Cheers
Lee
