Great Site
Hi Steve,
A credit to you for setting up a site like this for us old boys to look through.
I worked on all of Warren Steel's cars from 76 till 81 from the Gemco Old's, Rhubarb 5, Shellsport and the odd Rally thrown in. It was a great grounding to pursue a carrer overseas and I returned each summer later on for the Formula Pacific series to work with the likes of Christen Danner, Ross Cheever, David Brabham, Paul Radisich & Kenny Smith of course.
Over the years of following my dream of working on race cars I have lost alot of my early years of photos, if anyone has any pic's from Baypark era around 79-80 I raced the ex Alan Boyle Coke HB Viva that I had fitted a rotary(it was still red and I believe ended up in Tauranga with a V8 in it) , Also the Air Pacific series I ran an ex Shellsport Mini (yellow & blue) with a crossflow head etc, I think it was ex Adrian Hill?? not sure on his first name (he brought the Rhubarb 5 from Warren Steel) Bryan Hartley ended up with the engine for his later model Mini he built for Shellsport.
I work for Ross & Jim Stone and we have the odd reminisce about the old days, its quite funny as the young guys in the team cannot believe some of the things we did back in the day.
Keep up the great work
Cheers, Les
