A few old pictures from BCCV events.

Post by Glenn »

I found a few pictures back to 1982.

Maybe some can remember more about them and add some info.

You can also see my 1st Bellett build. A metallic gray 66 sedan with Gemini 1600 and 5 speed.

It was sold to a friend whose wife drove it for many years as a daily driver but was not a BCCV member. Since 'lost'

Early 80's this nice sedan appeared a coupl of times only. Had a 2L Toyota engine, disks and GT falcon boonet adapted to it. The owner had a panel shop as I recall. Never seen again by me anyway.

You know there is nothing better than flicking back to memories, I have a collection of photos from the NSW outings, I will try to find the time to scan and post. Don't get too exited just yet though, with my impending holiday coming up from the end of March to July touring our beautiful country, time is running short for preparation etc, so it wont be until I get back at the earliest.
We all look a lot different these days to then.
Nice car that grey car Glenn.
I would like a sedan like Kerry's some day, that is a great sedan, I knew that car was in Bathurst, but could not find it, again time was a problem and could not over to Bathurst to sniff it out! GREAT but Kerry, good luck to you!!

Just got to this thread Glenn, thanks for digging them out. It's great to see how they were back then.

Yep Broth, check the wheels - aren't they still on there? Looked good back then, like Tom said!
Will be back reeeeeeal sooooon! :?:

I like the early Florian with the 2-tone! Could that be vinyl?? Try finding a flat-grille now!

Cheers, Matt.
