New BRE website!

[dc311]

After years of waiting, the wait is over. Peter Brock and his wife Gayle have launched their new website with all the great photos and info we all have been wanting to see for years. The site is in its infancy and has much more to come but is definitely worth a visit at this point.

<BIG><BIG>Here is an excerpt from the site announcing the launch:</BIG></BIG>

Peter Brock and his wife and business partner, Gayle Brock, launch their website, BRE2.net. “This has been Gayle’s vision for years” shares Mr. Brock. “It started years ago when she began archiving all the BRE photos, press releases, posters, apparel, and a wide array of other artifacts. Then we started designing and producing parts and accessories for my redesign of the Cobra Daytona Coupe, the Coupe now sold by Superformance. Gayle was sending out images and price lists of our parts via e-mail. Having a background in computers, it wasn’t too long before the benefits of a website became startlingly apparent to her.”

From Gayle’s perspective:. “Knowing what great eye candy exists in the BRE archives and the great stories Peter has to share, I couldn’t resist combining the old with the new on our BRE website. It’s been a very ambitious project but a pure labor of love for me. It’s a project that will continue to evolve as more BRE products come out (the upcoming remote control models of the BRE Datsun 510s are the coolest and models of the BRE Datsun 240Zs and BRE Datsun 2000s will follow) and more archive photos and stories will be posted. It’ll be an ever-changing site with the goal that BRE and Coupe fans everywhere can get more information from, and about, BRE on an ongoing basis.” <O:pThe Brocks explain the website name as two-fold: First, the “2” in BRE2 represents the partnership Gayle and Peter enjoy in all things, business and personal. Second, BRE2 denotes the resurrection of the original mid-‘60s BRE with a goal of sharing their archives with fans, having easy access to the parts and accessories they provide for the Coupes, providing new BRE related products such as upcoming models of the BRE Datsun race cars and a line of apparel and merchandise. Ultimately the Brock’s will also make available more of their photographic work from their photojournalism business. Whether it be BRE products, Coupe products, photographs, apparel, merchandise or stories, it will be worth coming back again and again to BRE2.net.

We are all pleased to see that Peter and Gayle have lauched their site and it is well done. I am sure they will be adding to it presently!

The Photos and history are first class!!

I too, have been contacted by the guys from ABC, they photographed my racing roadster and BRE replica 240Z. So expect to see a BRE roadster RC body and BRE #46 RC body in the very near future.

So...that would be a RC RC BRE roadster?

[Ron Carter]

Well actually my roadster is a BSR replica, and they are not planning on a BSR RC roadster...

I missed that thread. Sorry.

I think some of the old school B & W BRE 240Z photos will look great framed.

I'd like the BRE Z.
