On the road again
Peter Albon, custodian of the Buchanan Fiat, reports it's passed the RWC and is now registered for road use in Victoria.
This was the same car campaigned by Bruce Maher at Bathurst, Mt Druitt and Schofields back in 1957/58 and one of the factory entered racers of the period.
Look closely and you can see the new "Buchanan Body" badges mounted on the grille and steering wheel! The BRG paintwork looks superb and really suits the car, well done Pete.
