List of Cars in sheds...

There's another early series RX7 with a chev power plant that went to QLD around 99/2000 that used to reside in Tassie, Competed in the O'brien series, sold and never seen it again. There's a picture of it somewhere on here from an Oran park grid overhead shot JD put up.

The Ex Darren Pate VH, thats somewhere up here (or was ?). When i had the Monza on the market he tried to buy the brakes off it.

This RX7 ran fairly infrequently in QLD when Steve Pittman owned it (I saw it once or twice at Morgan Park and QR). I believe this may be an ex-David McGuinness car? Robert Coutts has it now but I am unsure as to when or whether it will hit the track again as it has been stripped and modified to try and improve it as it was in very average condition when Couttsy purchased it. I was recently told he had actually scrapped the project, it may well be for sale again shortly.

Was it the black car with the blue stripe down it? I have footage of it taking out Thomson in the Mercedes at Amaroo.

Yeah pretty sure they're referring to the old McGuiness RX7 Chev, ran in Sydney up until the mid 1990s.

As for Pate's VH, jeeez that takes me back! Last time I saw that race was at a night race at Oran Park in 1991, he actually won the race too. He stepped up to the Lexcen shortly after that, amazing that the VH is still around.

Whats happening with:
- Roddy Jag, will it be out again soon?
- Camm Prelude, sold or in shed?
- Mikac RX7, will it see the track again?
- Sense Falcon, still around?
- Tony Wilson Monaro, heard it's for sale, someone buy it!

This is just for you JD.... List here any cars you know of that are sitting in peoples sheds for one reason or another. Some obviously not being driven for financial reasons, others for sentimental reasons? Or good cars in sheds doing nothing. Perhaps we can match a few cars up with some perspective racers and get a few more out on the track where they belong. If you own one of these and it's for sale or hire let us know. Or perhaps you need help getting it running? Let us know and maybe someone here can help..Here's a start......

Neil Bryson Calibra. (Not sitting yet but will be soon unless someone buys it)
Grant Munday Commodore. (In pieces but mostly there. Will it be going soon?)
Bob Gill AU. (For sale after Bob built BA)
Bob Gill BA. (Ready to go?)
Bob Gill Mustang. (Ready to go?)
Keith Carling series 3 RX7. (For sale)
Grant Munday Camaro Transam (For sale)
Steve Vigurs Camaro (car before the one Butler runs now. For sale)
Glen White Capri (Qld car for sale?)
Joe Pirotta Cortina (Rebuilding? No driver?)
Ex Bob Jolly VK. (Roller sitting in Darwin..For sale?)

There's 11 to start with. I'm sure there's a hundred more...


The ex Jolly car has been completely rebuilt and is now in Toowoomba. The car is ready for or has testing.
