The '68 6hr machine.

cheers
 Note the grasshopper rear tyre, 21'' front, no mufflers, indestuctable non swing up footrests, all the good gear of the day. Not forgetting 'Molybaked' chains and moybdenum-di-sulphide added to the engine oil and added to the oil can for squirting onto the chains during refuel pit stops.

I wouldn't have recognised that as Gilesy in the top photo....but it is. I love the photo of the two blokes (Alby Newton showing off his ripped body???) in the pits with the Cotton and Beeza. The bloke on the right looks to have mastered mobile phone technology 40 years early .

 Albert and his Cotton with Milton Vincent. The Cotton was Albys' Milton was riding a 250 Ducati, Kembla mid 60's.

Back in my old street racing days there was a bloke who lived at Matraville who had a 292 Cusso V8 in one of those Wolesley 6/80s. It was a frighteningly fast car for the late 60's and the king of the Bunnerong Powerhouse road until Peter King got his genuine '62 Chevy Impala 409SS Bubbletop in late '69. That thing made all of our hotty FJ's seem kind of insignificant. It'd still be considered a seriously quick car today.(sorry for the little sidetrack).

Firko, have another look at the bike with the Cotton, It's a BSA Bantam tank on an AJ or Matchy.

 Ya right Foss, I've got a soft spot for T100 Tribsas' ever since that day!.
cheers.

 Mark, That old Wolseley was a magnificent old low mileage trade in where I worked (Holden Dealer). I bought it for 50 quid! 1owner!
  Stuck to the road like glue, fast enough when you got it wound up.

 The thing had a 'orrible cam profile which burnt out valves No 2 & 3. infamously, When it did it to me I found it the most frustrating valve regrind to do, so I fixed it and sold it.

 A V8 would have been a good plan!
 
   I new Bert Jones pretty well and badgered him to regrind the cam profiles but he said "no bloody way, they are a pain to do.'

 I then bought my E.H and thought 'this thing doesn't handle' after 'ol gold finger'.

cheers pancho.
