VINTAGE VIDEO: Eric Bana aka POIDA meets Craig Lowndes - Speedcafe

An early Crewman.

Wrong turn

"Barry, that GPS has stuffed up again!"
"Don't worry Kath, I know what I'm doing!"

We.ve got to stop this "Let's have a keg" business.

A croweater joke.

Pantera offroad.

Now in WA.

6 hour action.

Or inaction in this case.

I'm allright Jack.

Dean at speed.

Peter on the start/finish straight.

Rick on his knees.

Club member, Chris, in an MX5 team called Fun for All. They finished behind us!

The Knappstein winged Z showing the way (before its demise).

Next lot of pads coming up. In the words of Michael Almond, "Mallala is known for its big braking zones!!"

Rick's spin off in the rain which brought out the safety car. Needed a tow, the starter motor doesn't work. All of this watched from the comfort of the cosy media box.

Trying to hold off one of the many Loti.

Our "sister" team of Barry, Kym, Richard and Kristen and cohabitants of our garage. They finished 12th, we finished 16th.

Brian, our no.5 entrant. (question : what's different about this Mk.7?)

and team entrant no.4 (Norm). Roger's 7 in the background.

A fuzzy Dino.

Peter Mac in a hurry. Too much of a one as it turned out.

Ron's 7 behind the garage. He was off getting tips for next year.

Team manager, Alan's, green clubbie.

I'm really proud of our effort on the day. We went there to enjoy ourselves, to gain experience and not disgrace ourselves. We did all of that and didn't even come last as was expected of us. On top of that we won an award for the best presented team.

Progress in Madrid.

Our Spanish friends have dragged the Bolly out for a bit more work. On the recommendation of a couple of Victorian members, they've picked up a Mustang II front end through one of their suppliers in England. Joe has been busy with the camera while "the boss" makes it fit the chassis.

The rear end is next with preferences leaning towards BMW 535i

Can anyone help Andrew F?

Hi guys – door hardware is next on the list for the Mk 7 and I need some help.

I have the correct Cortina Mk2 winders and crank handles, but can only find my inner door handles – can’t find the door handle mechanism and inner arms that connect to the latch?

I thought I had some correct ones out of a Cortina Mk2 4 door, (like the winders) but they have gone missing????

Does anyone have a LH/RH set of Cortina Mk 2 inner door mechanisms they wish to sell?  I believe the 2 door mechanisms work just as well….

Cheers,

Andrew

1983 AMSCAR Group A Sports Cars round 3 - Amaroo

They were the days.

On the Nullabor.

Not every day you see this. Well, not where I live anyway.
John Harrland is at a servo on the Nullabor, coming home from Easter. The pilot had just taxied up to the pumps to fill the plane with fuel.

It more or less reminds me of planes landing in the street and taxi-ing up to the pub in Birdsville.

VooDoo

Jeff Rowse found this article. He has the original Hot Rod magazine if the current car owner wants it.

One way to see a white Bolly on a race track.

It's Peter Mac. Thanks Graham.
