Guys, I was just wondering. If we could get something that we could print out at home and stick on our cars as a tribute?

Yes, very well done. Quite moving. Brocky was certainly one of the childhood heroes. I just can't believe it. May he rest in peace and condolences to his family.

I was thinking the same thing. I'm working on a sticker to be done in vynil lettering. If anyone knows of someone who can print it out for me fairly cheap (in Melb) I'd appreciate the contact details.

Very well done, although im a Ford guy, I still admire the King of the Mountain, certainly knew how to peddle a car around, and moulded the man we know as Lowndesy, will be sadly missed, but he will still be hovering over the motor racing world.

R.I.P Brocky!

This has been suggested on LS1, not sure of its origin.

Here are some photos of Brocky at his last race meeting, the Goodwood Revival meeting, racing the 48/215 Holden and Corvette Stingray (his last race), courtesy of a nice bloke in the UK who sent them to me (thanks Bill)

He would have had an absolute ball racing over there.

Nice work. I saw pics of Brocky at last year's Goodwood festival driving his original 05 VK racer. He loved the oldies.

RIP Brocky. We'll miss ya mate.

Very nicely done. What a damn shame he's gone. Hope he's up with Barry Sheene having a cold one.

Why is it that none of the tributes I've seen so far seem to even want to acknowledge that Brocky was in any way involved with Ford? They don't even show him in a BMW. Fair enough he was Holden's favourite son, but he did drive other cars and even put his name to some Fords.
