Anyone remember Rosco McGlashan??
i was reading the Wanneroo Times and saw on page 24 an advertisement that Rosco McGlashan and his wife Cheryl are into real estate?!?!?! i wonder if the aussie invader got him in so much shite that he had to go real estate to pay off the debts? he was a good bloke though.. met him when i was in my teens when he was signing posters at a car show... the aussie dream didnt work in his favour unfortunately.

I went to his house one day with a car club. He has been very quiet for a long time. Extremely nice guy though. You should see his shed....what a set up! Some one far more cynical than me might suggest that he did not have council approval for it though!

Rosco is a top bloke not was.. He is and always has been.
He is currently working on a new faster machine which as far as I know is being financed by a well known adventurer.. Well that was the story last time I saw him at golf.. Unfortunatly we all have to pay our bills and cant play withn our toys all the time.. That means having a job...

I went to school with Rosco's son Bryce.
I still got my poster of the Aussie Invader II signed by Rosco McGlashan when I was a kid here somewhere! |

Rosco is a top bloke, we used to have a little bit to do with him when my family's business was sponsoring the Warlord Funny car back in the ravenswood days, I still remember hearing of the time he had the aussie invader at a school showing it to kids and he lit the afterburner and melted the soft top roof off of a suzuki sierra!
