Ferrar Host marque at Classic Adelaide 2005

but there is one in the Thoroughbred section now, was that there before?

33 Ferraris must be worth a flight to Adelaide for a few days I think....

 

1986 328 GTS

Just sent off entry form, deposit and etc so Adelaide here we come.

Good to see another Ferrari entry....its getting more and more likely i will make the trip.

There are a number of cars which I have never seen before - 288GTO, F40, Lusso, Daytona. I also noticed the DeTomaso Pantera GT4 which just competed in Targa West (and retired during the prologue ) is also in CA.

Since Ferrari is the host marque, does anyone know if they will have some display cars there (i.e. like an Enzo, Superamerica etc)?

 

Number of Ferrari as of tonight...

Competition - 8

Tour - 6

Thoroughbred - 25

Regularity - 8

not long now

 

On that new show (Drive) on Ch.10 they said about 100 Ferraris are expected - even including demo/dealer cars I can't see that happening.

 

look out for Allan Simonsen in a 333SP that is currently sitting in a well known Richmond showroom............

 

and today was spent looking for a clutch cable and rear wheel bearing for the dino, nothing like last minute rush, nearly had to ring em and say the tr is coming out of retirement

 

Goobs did you find the clutch cable or did you have one made up?

 

luckily i have my own mechanics at werk and they decided long ago to spend my money buying spare parts for the toys in my life, it werks out that i screamed at them when they did it and today i was eating humble pie and saying yep u blokes were right, so i now have an inventory of parts for a dino and starting to collect parts for the TR,
the wheel bearing came straight out of CBC bearings and i happily bought enough sets to last a life time

 

Thats good to hear.Do you have any pics of the GT4?

 

coming now just gotta reduce em down

Mate it looks good with and without the stickers

 

thanks, ash has some great pics of the car, on the road

 

So 333SP, I think 2 F40s, an F50, 550 GTC, 288GTO...

Will be there tomorrow morning helping to move the cars. Will have lots of photos for you guys.

Maybe some of us Fchatters could meet somewhere? Can anyone suggest a place (within walking distance to the cars)?

 

if i'm not hungover i'll come in and check it out, this'll be in vic square yeah? what time?

 

I am so pissed that I can't make it.......

 

james,
i gotta get the m3 serviced, do u want me to ring griffo or can u do from here?

 

found some of the arrivals... http://www.nissansilvia.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=124729&view=findpost&p=1759936

 

Panam racer? Those 747s are pretty quick, I don't reckon the 333sp has much of a chance

 

I'll be in Adeaide on Thurs 17th - are there any 348's entered?

 

yes

 

Hmmmm, a $1,000,000. Gullwing Mercedes? Hilarious! Makes the Fox car sold at auction in the high $400's look like a good buy
Rudge wheels at $35k a set?? Makes F50 wheels look a positive bargain.

 

Just booked my tickets and shall arrive around 12:40 in Adelaide on the 18th (work on the 17th), and look forward to seeing the action.

How many people from these forums shall be there? I'd love to catch up with some people there .

 

Friend of mine in Adel, took afew pics today... waiting for him to upload but he showed me one with 2 F40's and a F50 in the background

 

I was helping at the event today, and took around 80 photos and a few videos - some from inside the F50 while driving, one from a 360 Modena, and another from in a Dino.

Also I have a video of the 288 GTO idling at the showgrounds as we were trying to work out what was wrong with the clutch before we could drive it to Victoria Square...

I'll post some of the photos and vids tomorrow when I get home from work, so stay tuned.
