For some reason Fahey opted to run his Mustang as a Group 2 car, as supplied from Shelby, rather than take advantage of the loose Allcomer rules. But even still, he won two races and finished 3rd in the 1967 championship.

Good to see, never seen any footage of the Custaxie in action : it really worked pretty well.

Paul Fahey with cut away front wheel arches.
Shame about Neil Doyles Angia Corvette (?) at the end - lot of steam

This is the NZ Saloon Car Championship contest at Wigram in 1967, the last year the Allcomer cars were eligible to compete in the championship. The footage is really pretty clear. No sound to speak of, at least not consistent.

Anyway, this was the second of Robbie Francevic's wins on his way to becoming 1967 NZ Saloon Car Champion. Enjoy!
