Hi Douglas.. Wow! I hope I remember you. Names would be great as I also want to do a movie type slide show like I have just completed of building our home,sheds etc at Greenbank. Welcome aboard. Regards Lofty Harris (RockyOne) Greetings, I'm ex-QPC form the '60's. Came across your pics. I can add some names to some of your photos if you like.

Lots of nostalgia there.

Douglas

Thank you for the comment!;-) Very nice to meet you in the virtual world!

Loved your Birdsville album....especially the commentary. Most of that territory looks exactly like my personal stereotype of what Australia looks like. You have to be a hearty soul, or a fool, to make it out there; perhaps a bit of both, eh? I'll be back to look at more.

Mike

Lovely photos :-)

don't think I could keep up with you..I think you could..I'm pretty slow through the gears these days,but happy with things overall. Rgs RockyOne

That yellow JEEP looks very similar to the one I used to have except for the rack on top. Oh how I miss the crazy fun I had in that thing. I enjoy the photos you've posted............Thanks WMS I tend to envy those who live closer to hills,mountains and roads with bends in them. We are out in the wide open spaces and have to drive (guzzle gas) to get to the good spots..Doing another adventure soon down to Landcruiser Mountain Park near Gympie in Queensland.. Great for me as they allow us to bring well behaved dogs in, so my mate 'Spanner' will, be along for the camping adventure. He loves the Jeep anyway..Will tow our Aussie Swag camper so will be almost as comfortable as home, but more fun. Hope your winter has been kind to you all.

Found your motorcycle album by chance on the home page...loved it. I have left a few comments for you to deal with.

Mike .. Thanks to your mssgs Mike, I searched for and found a few of my other motorcycle pix and posted a couple..Sorry,at this stage, they are quite low res ones.. Have to dig deeper. I had a beautiful Matchless 500cc twin with mufflers that just made music..Never put a spanner on it except for normal adjustments. Traded it on the T-110 so I could have the fastest available stock bike in Australia. Matchy,AJS,Norton,BMW (500ccs) at the time were all around 105mph while the 650cc Triumph Tiger 110, as used buy our Queensland Police were around 112mph. (I did 112mph 180kph once on mine)

Hey all you globetrotters, check this out and make one of your own. Mine's only a teeny one. Some fotkins like Gary will have massive ones - he's visited 22% of the planet!! If you don't mind, I'd like to make an album of snapshots of each of your travels as at August 2007. If you want to participate, follow the link here:

http://journals.fotki.com/Pedro23/travel-map/

make your own map, then drop the url from the map site into my guest book & we're away. The url I need will look something like this:

Well Sara,you may be aware the upstairs is based on Mazda™ compatable components.I cooked my original JR-2 diesel motor and slotted in a Mazda R-2..Fitted straight in..Downstairas,appears the diffs are copies of Dana's,possibily 25's or more likely 27's..I have Detriot™lokers in mine so,I doubt they would make them for Rocsta so more likely,the diff is as used on a Jeep.....Helps? hey,

im new, was admiring your rocsta and was wondering if you had a workshop manual copy i could snag to work on my little baby. if you do could u contact me on miss_pie_girl@hotmail.com as i am rarely on forums that would be fantastic.

thanks.

Sara
