Allan Moffat's Iconic Trans-Am Mustang - World Record Holder!

[@supercededman]

I recently bought the limited edition book about Moff's Mustang. It came with the original logbook from when Allan took delivery in the States. I treasure this book. Amazing car. Amazing man.

[@lukebrennan5780]

I was a kid out at Oran Park watching Moffat and Jane going hammer and tongs. Moffat was GOD and the car above is how I remember it. The back was up on jacks in the grass while they worked on it. Truly a magic time for motor racing in Australia.

[@andrewganley9016]

My all time favourite muscle car!

[@JC-gw3yo]

The vintage Trans Am racing is as good as it gets. If you ever get a chance to go to one, DON'T miss it...

[@kaiserashkaiserash8162]

Love it Glenn, and that little 68 Coupe is stunning 😍

[@ricklarner9263]

a real beauty! Amazing winning record!

Allan was a good old boy from Canada.

Such a glorious sound. Fantastic show mate

[@GlennEverittMasterofMachines]

Thanks mate! Yes, it's an epic machine that's for sure. :-)

[@stuartrowley8025]

Love it. Nice of Dan to bring out the beast for the event.

My favorite! Thanks mustang

I was lucky enough to get to push the 'Stang out of its tent at Calder.

[@ponyexpress4843]

difference between a ford and holden , ford push it out of the tent , holden push it around the track. ha

[@granthendriksz2507]

Love it.

[@weldmachine]

Great work Glenn. Getting all the video at Philip Island. It was funny and not ?? Watching the drivers trying to get these cars going around corners. They were really a point and shot car back then. Forget about going around corners, LOL. The drivers were really wrestling with the cars when it came to cornering.

[@timearll266]

Kick ass!

[@stephenvelden295]

Waaay better racing than the boring, over regulated, V8 Supercars!

[@mael-strom9707]

Ditto... 😎👍

[@ponyexpress4843]

there like sheep following each other around the top paddock, boring

[@Leosarebetter]

What cracks me is that the owners of V8 Supercars cant see how shit boring it is to see plastic after plastic - same shape - same specs - same drivers racing around the track. No car development, no driver development. Its boring. Stopped watching years ago.

[@arcorob]

Hey, any chance you could share the wheel and tire size for the 1970 Trans Am boss ? Thank you !!!

[@GlennEverittMasterofMachines]

I can't confirm 100% but pretty sure they'd be 15X 8 all round.

[@sixstrings1490]

"Praise the FORD" 😎

[@twolak1972]

Bet when they pulled that baby off the trailer chevy damn near shit its pants. Like the 427 sideoiler and cammer the Boss 302 race version was a thing to be reckoned with.

[@christopherkroussoratsky2014]

Engine is not Trans am spec, it would only be able to run a single 4 barrel in the SCCA Trans Am series.

[@jimclarke1108]

Good old days

[@KPen3750]

Does that 68 coupe have the Tunnel Port 302? Those things would make huge power but have very sluggish get up out of the corners, Which let to the development of the Cleveland head and the Boss 302 of the 69 car

[@mickblack3291]

Pretty sure it's a 289

[@KPen3750]

Yes Allan brought professionalism to the sport in oz! Find it a bit strange with the extreme reves and using the engine to brake!

[@amraceway]

Strange that it does not have the rear mudguard scoops that all 1969 Mustangs had.

[@stephenvelden295]

That's because it's a Boss 302. They did not have the scoops.

[@amraceway]

@@stephenvelden295 It originally had the scoops. It wasn't a boss. It had a gazillion body panel changes, apart from the roof I doubt it has an original body panel left especially after it became a sports sedan.

[@chopperking1122]

@@amraceway theres pictures of its first race in australia without the scoops . its a bud moore built trans am boss 302 . it was made to put scoops on for the 1972 season

shame the camera was on the wrong side of the car when the hood was open (hood prop was on that side)

[@guskuratlejr9228]

Is that What they call Hilborn or Himborn injection? If so was that the early stages of fuel injection?

No, not injection, these are Downdraft Weber Carburetors x 4. :-)

[@guskuratlejr9228]

@@GlennEverittMasterofMachines Thank you sir

[@kellyswoodyard]

I can't make up my mind, as to which is the best looking car ever built. Is it this particular Mustang, or the John Wyer, Gulf 917K Porsche.

[@GlenB1963]

Moffat didn't have Brockys, or dicky J's charisma but man could he drive those falcons.

[@GlennEverittMasterofMachines]

Yes, he was a bit shy with the media sometimes, a real pro though, and a quiet achiever.

[@flamingfrancis]

Moffat didn't do too badly in 1987 In race at Spa in his Commodore co- driven by Brock and Harvey.

[@stuarthynes6136]

If Moffat could have obtained more titanium valve springs from america rather than the american teams grabbing most of them he would have won more races... not had to keep the ones he got under his pillow.

[@wayne7725]

My mother would drive circles around this dude no bull shit many people told me she could outdrive any man she drove the powder puff derby won all but her first race took 3rd.😂

[@kevinwaynehunt.9189]

BUT MOFFAT'S MUSTANG NEVER WON BATHURST.

[@twolak1972]

Back when racing was racing. Not that race for the cup BS they got now. When Dale E died I quit watching. Nascar is a freaking joke now.

[@rencelani-ty2sc]

To Kevin Hunt Holden struggled at Bathurst without a ford rear end in the back and needed cams to bend rules for them at the will of GM same in the USA otherwise GM would never win anything aptly badged stands for gunker Machine

[@12121149]

They are not real race cars from back in the Day WTF.

[@ldnwholesale8552]

Bloody hell those cars handle like crap!! Plus Dennis seemed to be a gear too low everywhere. And thoe camera car with all the tyre squeal. Tyre squeal in a racecar? Those stupid useless Hoosiers are a good part of the problem. Use some radials!! I suspect a normal buffed road tyre would be far better. And yes I am aware of the lack of suitable race radials. And yes I have done a lot of laps around that place tough in a Sports Sedan 10+ sec a lap faster and about a quarter of the cost.

[@j.osborne4914]

FYI You sound like right wanker

Was that Denis O'Brien in 1967 with Norm Beechey's Neptune Team EH Holden?
