Visited my local Holden dealership today & was given an official "Holden" "King Of The Mountain" tribute 2007 calender.
If you're a Brock fan, this calender is a "must have". The pictures have been supplied by Tim Pemberton, & embrace every aspect of PB's career, from the A30 to his last run with HRT in 2004. And I couldn't believe the large photo for the month of February- it's the original HDT release photo of "THE" original green VL Director with PB in a dinner suit-it's actually the same photo that appeared on the original Director brochure--and the caption reads "Peter Brock & the top of the range VL Commodore "Director"-1987"--Never thought I'd read that on an official "Holden" publication!
Get your copy now-it's the best bit of Brock memorabillia I've seen for a LONG time--sure to sell for a fortune on ebay!
Cheers, Pickles.

No problems, my information is that ALL Holden Dealers have them-they're FREE-don't know how many they've got though, I guess it's first in, first served!
Cheers, Pickles.

I think these are "promotional items" produced by Holden, for which there is no charge. Consequently you wouldn't find them in a Lions Den. They probably hand them out to their valued sales, or service, customers. If you have a good relationship with your local dealer, you shouldn't have a problem, but they probably wouldn't hand them out to just anyone who walks in off the street.
But, be persistant--they are very very good!
Cheers, Pickles.

Just called Motorama here in Brisbane and they had no idea what I was talking about. Looks like it's time to check ebay.

Asked matt at service and he has no idea.

That picture of him with that green VL, will my wife came across that poster in her grandmothers house a few years ago now and had it signed the last year ( 1997 i think ) he raced at oran park right. Well when he died she went down stairs to get this big box and i mean big, filled with brocky stuff, all signed and out came that poster in perfect condition, signed by the man and everything and do you think she will let me sell it. NO. Before you say go and get i out of that box she won't no will she hide that box and i have pulled that house a part and still can't fine it and i didn't even no she had it.

Why on earth would you want to sell it? I mean seriously?!?!?!?!?! Mum has a shirt or something signed by Brockie from the 83-84 Bathurst.

I must admit I was well chuffed when the Boss of the local Eagers Parts handed me a Calender last week. :goodtime: :woohoo:

Thankyou Sir!, I didn't see that coming.

Keep your eyes out, they are sweet.
