Folks, I have a few old racing pics I need help identifying for my Ford and Holden books.

First up is this neat Ross Cammick shot of MkI Cortina. Vincent Panelbeaters appear to be from Feilding. Picture was taken at Manfeild. Any help?

Danny Clark's car was entered as a Falcon GT Shaker. I guess his name was wrong in the programme.

It'd have to be 'Clarke' with an 'e' given the windscreen banner. Most drivers can spell their own name. :confused:
