Re: Perth to Albany
Thanks Ralph - been a bit quiet but this weekend I went to Heaven - I got to speak to Gentleman Jim Richards for 10 min. Talked about the Falcon Sprint / AMX Javelin / JPS BMW 635 Group C. I had my picture taken with him and Jim holding my 7 y/o Grand Daughter. Paul - keep going with the hard work m...

Re: Perth to Albany
Nice to see Locutus given a good run - I'm sure he appreciates it. I know what it is capable of on the 2v engine. My mind shudders to think what a 4v engine will do to it.
G'day Ellis - your beautiful sister still with you - miss her heaps!!!

Re: E24 40th anniversary.
That's a great read Ron. Thank you ! I can confirm the sentiments in the piece. Just came back from a blast down south along the freeways. LOCUTUS lived up to the hype and then some. Saw off a Mach 1 Mustang who gave up at somewhere north of 160km/h. The car just wanted more, but prudence got the b...

Re: VINNY'S OUTBACK TALE!
Hi Pod, pretty tough with the rain / floods there - are you affected (hope not)?
One of the Ford guys who runs an Auto-electrical business just posted about an 85 Red M635 coming in for work - BMW's are his favourite Euro!
Cheers Vinny

Re: VINNY'S OUTBACK TALE!

Everything kicked back in except I now have a major heart Disrythmia (AF) which I don't feel till the blood pressure drops to a da...

You know, you can still call him Locutus ya know. :wink: I think I prefer the thin one on this car............errr.........LOCUTUS.

Pod, just for information, had a certain member of these forums done the right thing when the car was on consignment with them and not removed / taken parts from the car Baders would not be looking for a rear window. When I bought the vehicle, the previous owner gave me a brand new green tinted wido...

They just hurt all the time. :( Ah man, that is so sad, what excuse are you gunna use when you want to fishtail up the road after the rains have made you a skid pan. As for the...

Brass monkey weather for us. Having lived in Canberra for 23 years I remember the frosty mornings well. So long as the wind w...

Salutations to all - took the E24 for a run today after several months of me being sick and unable to drive. The start of the drive went well with the car running faultlessly. Then, for no particular reason it started to become difficult to get into gear. What ever was happening was intermittent. Ge...
