Roy Harrington raced this lovely little Holden Torana fitted with a V8 in the 4.2 class of the New Zealand Saloon Car Championship during the mid-1970s. This is the car pictured at Bay Park in late 1975.
By the 1977 season, Harrington had boxed the guards, and fitted fuel injection to a larger Chevy V8, as seen in this Mike Feisst photo.
Harrington eventually sold the car to Brian Friend who repainted it in HDT colours.
By the 1981 season, Friend had painted it yet again and fitted a wild rear wing, as seen in this Terry Marshall photo taken at Bay Park.
Friend would go on to purchase the Brent Bullivant built V8 Capri off Bob Cullinane around 1983, who'd purchased it off Graeme Baker. So what became of the Harrington Torana?
