The Roaring Season

Thanks John, I did see the H 2098 sticker and have no doubt that MSNZ don't issue them easily. As I said this car looks to be the "real deal" as being a good 125T but the original livery for the B&H 500 is not correct according to all the records I have been able to ascertain. If you have read ...

Wow I hope he gets what he is looking for. The car looks authentic as a 125T, though it is painted up in the livery of my car and probably doesn't have the Race history suggested by that livery.

Hi Everyone an update on GG7963 has been up to recently. Here is a report that appeared in the US based online magazine Veloce Today.

Hi Bruce, they are Alfa GTA Ram Tubes. Available from international suppliers such as Classic Alfa and are available for both 40mm and 45mm carbs. I use them because they allow me to "arrange" them away from the shockie tower. They are retained by a ring which allows free rotation and clamped by ...

125T at Phillip Island Classic 2017 . Hi all, a note to let those of you who may be attending the Phillip Island Classic event in March, that my ex B&H 500 works 125T will be competing in this years event. We will set off on our big road trip (from Perth) next weekend the 12th and tow the car over ...

My car GG7963 also competed in the inaugural Targa NZ with Maurice O'Reilly at the helm so I believe.

Every year since 2008 without fail. Fantastic event, had an absolute ball this year.

Thanks for all the info everyone, I now have a complete picture. My car was No33 driven by Peter Hughes / Tony Lawrence and finished 7th outright, after some time in the pits with gear selection problems. I have read that it put in 2nd fastest lap of the day late in the race when Mr Hughes was ...

By the way this car has been kept in the spirit it's history deserves. It still sports a a Fiat 125 series 1608 engine with it's original spec Dellorto DHLA40 carbs, 4 speed gearbox and Fiat 4.1 axle (with LSD centre added). Original brakes (good pads) and original period option 6" x13 Ward wheels ...

Thanks Bruce To read that post and be able to know definitively that GG7963 really did start the race is absolutely fantastic. Then to find a period colour photo of it is brilliant. Now I would really like to know whether the car finished the race, and if so in what position. I knew quite a lot ...

Hi Bruce
As far as know there are 3 genuine 125T's in OZ. Mine in WA, one in Vic (for sale) and one in QLD (for sale). The car in QLD is the ex Tim Bailey- Roy Harrington car GH6701 which came 3rd outright.

Thanks Bruce I am not the one responsible for removing the car from NZ, that was done by an ex pat Kiwi who purchased it and had it shipped over in 2000. I bought the car from him in 2007 and have been thrashing it/maintaining it ever since. He purchased the car from Maurice O'Reilly of Tauranga. In ...
