Tom,
I'm jealous -
I forgot that was on - I would have trekked across from Adelaide to shoot it myself.
Just to see and hear that Ansett Elfin (Garrie Cooper's?) would have been worth it, let alone seeing that many 5000's in the one place.
Awesome pics
Regards
Phil

Tom,
I thought you might be interested to see a couple of early F5000 cars that compete in the British Hillclimb champs ,pre 85 cars,the first is a fearsome Lloa T142,which was a very successful chassis in the early days of F5000 ,and the other is an unusual and very pretty ArgoJM8.
Apologies for interrupting your thread ,but it does show how they changed.

Lola.



Argo
