Racing Humpy Holdens
The 48-215's Golden Decade and LegacyWith insights from Spencer Martin, Barry Seton and Others
The 48-215: the modest car, designed for a particular moment, that burst the boundaries of its expectations. There is a touch of the miraculous about this story: a modest car that defined a motoring era and a bunch of mates that built a racing car on a shoestring but through hard work, skill and nerve still reached the pinnacle of their sport.
