It is sad news that Road & Track are gone in Silverwater.
I was visiting Vic's new location on Parramatta Road yesterday and they mentioned Road and Track have closed the doors.
Perhaps the importing hassles with asbestos testing were a factor??
Here's a couple of photosRoad and Track 1.jpgRoad and Track 09.03.15.JPG from their busier days when Vic was there.

I wonder if the regulatory crack down on car finance (servicibility) and car dealers not being able to add to the headline finance rate for their own pocket over the past 18months is also a factor?

Looked like a nice set up, but very expensive if you don't have the right punters

And every one of those cars in that workshop were European imports

Someone must be making money fixing and selling original Aussie built cars, especially classics!

Like Falcon XB Coupes..... Which as it happens an acquaintance of mine has one in Whitehaven of all places, bought for a pittance many years ago, complete with MadMax blower, its a bit rough but c'mon I'd give my right arm....

Sad news indeed. One less specialist now to choose from in Sydney, Australia. Not a good thing given the insane prices the dealership charges for servicing.
