Repliconics - Trevor Jones has passed away

[wheelinround]

Thanks for the Link on Trev's TV appearance we had not seen it.

Like Crowie or similar to at a recent show n shine swap meet a number of bikes Trev had made scale models of were present.

Then with birds visiting our back yard or verg behind the mind wanders to the fantastic photo's Trev use to take. So we grab the camera also.

It's happened again with another Indian Motor Bike owner...

I was in town today and saw a couple of Indian Motor Bikes parked in the main street; a very old one and a new one.

After taking a couple of photos, I showed the riders Trevor's Indian, with the reply:

What a beautiful bike, immaculate detail, be well over $100,000.00 to buy bike of that standard....

Then I showed the photo of the bike with the Jerilderie mob behind it, they were absolutely dump founded.

Love it Trevor!!

You're still being joy to others!!

Cheers, Peter

Motorcycle racing returns to Sellicks Beach, South Australia.

And I'm sure Trevor would have loved to attend this event!!

Beach motorcycle racing, as depicted in The World’s Fastest Indian, is set make a long-awaited return to one Australian state with a strong motorsport history.

The Levis Motorcycle Club will host the two-day classic event at Sellicks Beach, South Australia, on February 18-19, 2017.


A field of 110 motorcycles manufactured before 1963 have entered to race across five classes – under 125cc through to 501cc – 1300cc.
Sidecar races will also be held.

The oldest motorcycle club in South Australia began beach racing in the 1920s and held annual Sellicks Beach Speed Trials in summer through to 1953.
Re-enactments were held in 1986 and 1992 but regular races have not taken place on the beach for more than 60 years.

Just thought of Trevor today as it's his birthday on Tuesday...
Miss him and his creative wizardry...
Long live the Junk Master Artisan, the miracle worker with bogg....
RIP in good friend!

Yes I go along with your thoughts Pete.
What got him? Was it cancer? It was surely very quick

[Chris Parks]

Yes, much missed and this earth is a poorer place for his leaving us.

[DaveTTC]

Hope to have a tribute to Trev at my next get together

That's a very fitting and entirely appropriate thought.

So very true.

I had the privilege of my first meeting with Trevor in November 2014 at a Katoomba Get Together at Brett's....

No sleeves, no foorwear, no name tag and no fuss....

And the only one I recognise in that photo is Trevor. Most of us remember him for his magic with junk, but he had many other talents that we didn't get to see or know about until after he was gone. A great talent gone too soon.

Trevor Jones would have had his 58th birthday today, gone but not forgotten!
Rest in peace good friend....
