- Holden engined Austin A30 - Sports Sedan
The crazy young lad in the
Austin A30 with the Holden engine certainly made made his mark.
His crude A30 was constantly under development between 1967 and
1970. This is a picture taken at the Templestowe Hillcimb
in 1968. Peter developed this car into a very competitive
vehicle and had many fascinating battles with the mini of Lyn
Brown and the Anglia of Lake Manticas in the sports sedan category. |

Brocks big chance came with
his drive with the HDT. The "fox" told him what to do and
even how to drive the big car. Brock complied and thus started
a long and successful association with HDT and Holden.

Bathurst 500
A young Peter Brock got that
dream telephone call from Harry Fox Firth to drive for the newly
formed Holden Dealer Team at the 1969 Bathurst 500. Poor
Peter did not initially believe it was Fox Firth talking.
He thought his mates were playing a joke on him. Peter did
what Harry said, he looked after the gearbox and brakes
and brought the car to a podium finish in third place.
Harry had discovered one of the greatest driving talents this
country has ever produced. |
