Cool,but I'm still wondering what happened to the red one, if old Ron was 70 on 1993, he would be getting on a bit now, wonder where the car is now? Havng someting like that to run around in your paddock in would be one of life's greatest experiences I reckon.
You can see how cars like that influenced modern day sprint cars.

He could well still be flinging it around his property...
1993 is pretty 'modern' by the way. it might even be the rear of an old body off a sprint car. |

Let's get some of these hillclimb photos up.
First one is Ray Sprague's AMX, very well know car at the Mount Tarrengower hill climb and at other events around Victoria, this one is an import I believe, not to be confused with the Aussie spec car that he has had from new. These photos are from 2008: Here is some youtube footage from the same event: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oVDh5-1IPKY and first up on this video from the Eddington sprints in 2007: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9gYRE62ZsTE Found a picture of this AMX at Tarrengower in 2009, don't have any details though: This next car is Goran Troselj's 1970 Aussie Javelin #23 running at the Rob Roy hilclimb in Victoria, the car is running a 390, 4 speed combination. Last I heard the car had been sold to a new owner, so not sure what it's doing now. Edited by WesternRed - Jul/13/2017 at 9:04pm |

Ah, so it is, he must have left the red one home that year, sounds like he has a bit of a collection going.

Rob Roy Hillclimb in Victoria was on again on sunday June 23rd. Anyone know if any AMC's had another crack and have any photo's by chance? Saw an ad for it last week in Herald Sun. I think ANYONE can have a go at it and you can even enter teams. Wonder if we should try an AMC team one year just for the fun of it
