Obviously some nice ANF1½ and ANF2 cars there, possibly a FJunior there hiding in the shadows, maybe some Atlantics?

 

What about Sports Cars, many of these catch the eye of your lens?

Laurie’s 600B turned into a steam engine in Friday’s 1st session, putting him out for the weekend, hopefully it’s just a head gasket.

Spencer. One more. I was very taken with your very pretty and beautifully presented car on the Sunday morning.

Thanks Gary, it was a pleasure to attend such wonderful race meeting with dozens of interested enthusiasts to talk car smack with! And it doesn’t hurt that Mallala is the spiritual home of the Elfin Mono either!

What's historic about a 2-litre A30?

 

Or wheels of that width on an FJ?

[Gary Davies]

Ray, I've passed your concerns to the meeting's organisers. I feel confident they will treat the matter with all the seriousness it deserves.

Barry Bray built that A30 near 50 years ago. It is a Nissan Fairlady Sports engine with down draft injection,, as it was in the 70s.

Phils FJ is running the [now] approved 6" rims. There was no tyres available to suit the previous 5'5" wide rims. Even then he is still stuck with the Hoosiers. That car is a very legal car.And quite fast.  Unsure if it is the same car his father raced in period but it looks the same.It is signed on the boot Abe's FJ

I plead ignorance of matters in SA before 1972...

 

But I do note that the Datsun 2000 engine would have certainly put some life into the A30.
