Not sure if any of you guys have seen these yet but here is the first of what will be a decent collection. Other cars will include Matich A50, A51 and A53. They are produced by Classic Carlectables in 1:18 scale.
Bondy, I've seen that model advertised. It looks incredible. I'm looking forward to seeing what other T332 versions are released as well.
For anybody who is a little more "Flush" with cash
The davison family have the actual car for sale in aust.
Steve, i was only a young fella but i know HU34 had the earlier air scoop like how the Davison's present it today. The bottom of the side pods were in the aluminium colour on HU34 and the Model which is HU61 is all white. HU61 had front brake ducts HU34 did'nt and there seems to be quite a few signage differences.
Thanks Bondy, so when did HU61 get wrecked? Their ad says HU34 was raced by Jon Davison from 1978, so was HU61 wrecked in 77?

If you have an interest in F5000
Here are a couple more old shots taken by a then keen young fella with his own little camera. I actually bumped into him at Hampton Festival and he said he had some old photos. he sent them to me and I will post them on threads and may even start a thread for them and any similar shots taken by amatuers with ordinary gear. It is all good.
I also have a photo of Grable hopping into the car on the front straight, so I think it was big promotion. Will post some more if i can get them to come out.

The No 5 car is what was billed as the Eisert Chevrolet "Formula A" car. I thought Ida died and gonto heaven when I saw the thing at Puke.
The date on back say's Ron Grable Spectre HR-1 Bay Park 26/12/68 I can remember them running but did not realise it was around then. Time goes by, and here we are playing with them again, so good.
