you tube and free hugs here we come, in fact i could do a video of the trip to melb tonight, btw why are u still awake, u need sleep, cos i'm gonna get it
I was under the impression Grant Perryman bought it... or did he buy one and you've bought another one! anyway... make sure you come and say hi to me too (yesm even you goober)... I'll fill you in on the car. Known it since new. PHR 001 Noske I'll give you a run down on the Ohlins... and their limitations for road rally use.
grants noske car is at work getting body done as we speak, i've got the 6k er BTW arent u meant to be in QLD!!!! address would be good too, + i had get get a better car than the national VP, now he might talk to me.......................one can only hope not, in fact there is more chance of FF and PP having dinner and chewing fat
the ex Scott Shearman PHR005 one then? Ok... bought new by Ross Palmer and raced by Darren P and Wayne Park a bit, then PHR.. either car... come and say hi... I fly to QLD thurs night. At work until then.
hey FF, do you still have that damaged wheel for me? if so then we'll see you tomorrow. oh, hang on, it might not fit...
i'm gonna get some shut eye until 9.00, see u tonight, look 4 a psychotically deranged alien in an ML55 with the peace sticker
Nope... it's gone... but Aidan [355].. will be having an ebay auction for charity (Very Special Kids/Medicin Sans Frontiers) of it VERY soon.. he PROMISES....
I do actually have it in the shop.... so I can tease you with it... I have 3... but I'm keeping two for myself.
Generally, what is the condition of cars like these? I expect they had a hard time as race cars.. although I gather Scott's Michelotto is pretty clean though
PHR001 ex Noske was showroom condition before Will Marshall bought it from Chris Smith... it's still really nice PHR005, ex Palmer/Shearman is showroom condition, and had some use recently enough to be kinda fresh... None have any evidence or compromise from their racing lives.. all repairs carried out to top quality.
Thanks Phil.. I figured you would have good knowledge of the cars.. That is great to hear, I bet Goober is going to get himself one sweet ride! Apparently this is the ex Noske/Bowe car. http://www.mumboracing.com/images/ichiban/DSCN0089.jpg Can't find many race pics of these cars online.
the ex team cars are "my" babies... many fond memories... and some not so fond too of course... Yes, thats 001.... but Bowe never drove it, thats just Mark Coffey getting forgetful... Noske moved to PHR003, and Bowe took that one over... although 005 is almost identical in every way... just has false floor in drivers feet and proflex shocks instead of Ohlins. Here's 003... don't have any pics of 001 saved for some reason... but there is a good pic of it somewhere doing a big jump over kerbs at Clipsall 2000 Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
