Iconic Brock cars up for grabs

SOME OF the most significant cars in Australian motorsport history are officially up for grabs, with car collector Peter Champion deciding to put his huge collection of Peter Brock racecars on the market following a string of health issues.
Australian Muscle Car Magazine Editor Luke West says it’s the “biggest and most significant sale in Australian motor racing history” and, when you look at the collection – which features a range of Bathurst-winning Commodores, Toranas and others – it’s hard to disagree.

Amongst the metal are the first and last Holdens that ‘Peter Perfect’ ever raced at Mount Panorama.

“Champion’s ‘Brock Collection’ comprises some 40 vehicles including the Austin A30, Malboro HDT Toranas and Commodores, Targa rally vehicles and now the infamous, fully-restored Daytona Coupe in which Peter Brock lost his life,” read the announcement.

“The collection closed to the public some 24 months ago and after suffering serious health issues last year, the owner has reached the difficult decision to part with the collection.

“Expressions of interest are being sought for the collection, preferably to be sold as a whole or perhaps individually.”

Champion acknowledged it was an extremely hard decision to reach after so many years.

“The time has come for the collection to move on,” he said. “It has given me and my team many moments of enjoyment and pleasure sharing this with the general public over the years, but the time has come for us to move on.”

The cars are currently housed at Yeppoon, near Rockhampton in Queensland.

For more information, or to lodge an expression of interest, contact the Champions Group’s Heather Allen on 1300 798 405 or at heather@championsgroup.com.au.
