***AUTOGRAPHED BY PETER BROCK - FOUNDER OF BROCK RACING ENTERPRISES***
Peter Brock left Shelby American at the end of 1965 to form his own company, Brock Racing Enterprises (BRE). The first thing Brock wanted to do was get back into the
driver's seat. What started as a small club racing project for a friend
in Japan ended up determining the life and direction of BRE for several
years. When Peter Brock took on the construction of a tiny 1000cc sedan
made by an obscure (and at that time never heard of in the US) truck
and bus manufacturer in Japan, called Hino, it sparked some interest in
the factory, which a year later contracted the construction of two more
racers; this time larger and faster.
When in 1966, Brock won the Mission Bell 100, a support race to
the Internationally renown Riverside Grand Prix, Brock became a hero in
Japan. Ultimately this success would lead to his relationship with
Nissan and racing the now famous BRE Datsuns.
Famed Japanese artist Telly Sahara captures that fateful Hino
Contessa race car in this beautifully detailed art. In the red circle
is an image from the Mission Bell race showing Brock in the lead,
followed by a Mini Cooper, which looks like a large car compared to the
Hino!
A sign of things to come can be seen on the front fender of the
car with the logo "Team Samurai". Already at this time Brock had dreams
of designing a GT car for Hino, the BRE Hino Samurai would soon follow.
Printed on brilliant white, high quality, high cotton content
heavy paper stock this piece of art will grab your attention no matter
where you place it.
