Nelson Area i think
Dad had listed this as the first race at Manfield cannot identify anyone so any help??
Would the Orange XU-1 be the ex-McCallum/Homewood car?

It looks like Leonard is across the screen of the red Torana, perhaps Leo Leonard?
Mate closer inspection suggests its Leopard not Leonard as you may be able to see here
That would be the ex Homewood /McCallum orange torana when Graham Crawford owned it.I think he fitted the wider rims spotlights and triple delorto carbs and later flared the guards.
Yes it was Mike. I took some photos of it if you want me to post them?
Sure, if you have them and are happy to put them up, that would be great. Cheers
Hi, I am the current owner of the Ebbett Motors / Jim Palmer XU-1. I have just joined The Roaring Season & started a new thread on this car in the hope that I can find all the information about this car possibly available, thanks.
IS the 69 car roy harrington?
if so did this get chopped to his Torana Sports Sedan type car/
If so where did that car end up?
I will have some of that car I am positive ,I will have to have look and see If I have any taken from the rear
Roger ,69 is the Harrington car,not sure about it becoming what became the Sports Sedan ,some one else might know ,I thought the car in the photo ended up with Ray Olenius
Kerry, is that your car above, posted by Shano, car #41?
Yes, Steve it is, this one must be early in the year as more decals were added later & number surrounds were added. Considering it only raced for the one year there a lot of changes. I would really love a photo of rear of car as there was something across back spoiler ?? Two more photos of car racing.
Hoco - my photo would have been taken at the Glenvale meeting at Bay Park.
That's a very interesting garage you have there - apart from various sexy Holdens, a Yammie YZ 250, Triumph (Bonneville?), a classic Suzuki from the GT series, a classic Honda, not to mention a brace of big Webers etc casually lying on the cupboard in the background.
Shano, thats the ex-Jim Richards XU1 owned by the Price family.
Thanks Steve, Here are a couple more I took the other week of the ex Richards car.
A few more pics of Jim Richards in action can be found at www.gtrxu1.org.nz
