Limited Edition of 500.
1974 Sports Sedan series, Australia.
#17, Driver: Bryan THOMSON.
"Bryan Thomson's VW Chevrolet 5000 was specially constructed to win the $100,000.00 Marlborough Series at Calder Raceway. The car itself was a breakthrough and was built to exploit the current rules elevating Sports Sedans to a new level of performance and engineering, that raised the bar over it's competitors.
Bryan was leading the4 final race of the series, which would have guaranteed him the Championship, only to be spun out by another competitor, who went on to win the Series."
