Photos: The Graeme Bennett Collection - Part 1

Too bad photos don't come with sound though Dale, you know the air would be filled with noise in this shot. To my mind the Sidchrome Mustang looked best this first year, with the subtle bubble flares and ground scraping stance. But of course its much more famous and best remembered in its later guise with two-tone paint and box flares.

I agree Steve, thats why i like this pic, the first year ofcourse Jim won the NZSCC and the mustang was still basically to FIA group 5 rules under MSNZ, then the following year it pretty much became a Sports Sedan and is probably most famous for here and in Australia, in that look.

Here is the AWA Escort, formerly a Ford Boreham Group 2 factory race car that competed in Europe. Its currently owned by Roaring Season member Chris Kitzen, who is restoring it, and looking for photos! I hope this helps Chris.
