The Roaring Season

Pictured in the paddock at Wigram, beautiful Lamborghini Miura. Where is it now?

This is Trevor Crowe's Chevy V8 powered Toyota Corolla OSCA car. Crowe, who didn't have much money at the time, built this car from a wrecked four door sedan. According to Crowe, it had been barrel-rolled, and its occupants were killed. he worked at Toyota at the time and was able to purchase brand new coupe rear quarters and roof, and modified everything else to suit.

I believe this car later went to Mike Moore, the speedway racer, who circuit raced it for a time, but its my understanding it eventually became a dirt track car.

Exotica at Wigram, including Ferrari Daytona, Dino, Jaguar E Type, and Lamborghini Miura. Wonder where they all are today?

The Corolla which Trevor built wound up being a Modified Sportsman driven by Dave Bray at (mainly ) Waikaraka, nder #5. (I crewed for him) It later went to Dirt track at Meremere and Waiuku. When Dave had it motor was a Hemi 6.
