A few more.....
Start off with one of those Elfin monsters.
The 2nd pic, the white #2 car is quite unique, being the RT2 Ralt built for Toleman and used by Brian Henton in F2 back in the day (1979), then in 1980 sold to Genoa Racing in the States where it was converted to Can Am spec and raced successfully over the pond(still with the Hart 420R engine). It came to Aus c 2000. The plan now / longer term is to return the car to its original F2 configuration.
The 3rd pic is a Nota Major (An Aussie 'special' from 1960)
Pic #4 we have another Elfin. The second car obviously a Lola Mk1 and followed by the MG Regah Special. The #24 is a Mac Healey.
Pic #5 (car #30) is another Aussie Special.... the TS Special.. originally built by the Styles Brothers in Western Australia- Rod Styles was an instructor at the old Carlisle Technical College in Perth, for Syd Taylor. The car was rebuilt in 1952 taking on the appearance it has now. It is fitted with a highly modified 6 cylinder GMC truck engine -
The MG Special is Supercharged and has a long Aussie history... David Harvey recorded fourth fastest time and placed second on handicap with this car in the 1950 Australian Grand Prix.
