Re: Bob Jane Camaro - Beneath The Skin

"Houston.... We have a problem"........ Steve, I quote those famous words as I look how long it it since I did an update...... can't believe it was September last year! As with the Camaro project itself, sometimes you encounter problems or delays that were not in the "Master Plan". I do have in my ...

Re: Race Car Barn Finds

Myles, wasn't there an old Kevin Bartlett F5000 that surfaced recently too? Was it his Mildren? Can't remember where I read it. Steve, you might be thinking of the Kevin Bartlett McLaren 10B which is now with Alan Hamilton along with the previous 10B that Alan owned. Both cars originally owned by ...

Re: Warwick Farm Touring Cars - 1968

Sorry Steve.... been a little distracted of late... The Beechey Camaro was certainly a little mysterious in as much that it made very few appearances. As to where it went after its few races, I do not know.... I remember seeing a picture in Racing Car News of Norm and Margaret standing on the corner ...

Re: Famous Jaguars and Racing Saloons........'British to the Flag'

The "Model" project is moving into its final stages, with some changes having been made to the prototype shown in the pictures.... If posssible, we'd like to find out a few more facts/ stories on the car to include on the packaging notes to go with the model.... Was it the winningest MkII Jaguar to ...

Re: Holden Monaro

Steve, You're on the money there, Graham Ritter drove the Escort in 1971, finishing 6th overall in the ATCC. Michael Stillwell almost won the ATCC in 1972, due to the point system introduced that year, which awarded equal points for under 2 ltr cars and over 2ltr cars, with additional bonus points ...

The Niel Allen Mustang seen in the video.... this time at Sandown heading up the Pit Straight. This car was origanally run by Greg Cusack in the same Castrol colour scheme as Pete Geoghegans, but Greg Cusack did very few events in it. http://img839.imageshack.us/img839/6945/namc.jpg And the Brian ...

Re: Warwick Farm Touring Cars - 1968

The car I would have liked to see win the 1968 ATCC at Warwick Farm..... The Norm Beechey Camaro. These pictures taken on its debut run at Calder Park, where he won first time out against Pete Geoghegan. A bit hard to see in the picture, but parked beside the Camaro was a HK Monaro.... a sign of his ...

Re: Minis and Imps

A rare shot of Graham Ritter at the wheel of one of the ex works Castrol Imps..... Hume Weir. Graham tells me that he only recalls driving the car once in this configuration. It's the only picture Graham had ever seen of the car painted gold. http://img163.imageshack.us/img163/9312/53766347.jpg
