Product Details
This superb piece features iconic imagery and detail taken from the official history of the 1970 Hardie Ferodo 1000, won by Alan Moffat in his legendary Ford GT-HO.
As one of only two men to have won Bathurst in both its 500 mile and 1000 kilometre formats, Allan Moffat sits at the pinnacle of the greatest Ford drivers in Australian history. Moffat’s four wins on Mt Panorama during the 1970’s ensured he and great rival Peter Brock maintained a stranglehold over Australia’s most prestigious motor race.
Allan Moffat won the Australian Touring Car Championship four times, had six wins in the Sandown 500, and four wins in the Bathurst 500/1000. Moffat was inducted into the V8 Supercars Hall of Fame in 1999.
Fred Gibson won the 1967 Bathurst 1000. Gibson became a mainstay with the Ford Works Team for the next six years, taking much success at Sydney's Oran Park and Amaroo Park in particular. He won the competitive Oran Park production sedan series, the Toby Lee Series, in 1970 and 1971 driving his Falcon GTHO supported by his Sydney speedshop, Road & Track. He was inducted into the V8 Supercars Hall of Fame in 2004.
