I took these photos at the Gosford Classic Car Museum in Sydney, Australia. The museum has over 450 cars with a combined value of over $70 million under one roof.

This is the 1971 RT E38 Valiant Charger, it's powered by an Australian built Hemi 265 cu in (4.3 L) HP base engine with triple sidedraught Weber carburettors and produced 280 bhp or (210 kW) with a 3spd manual.

This particular car was driven by Brian “Brique” Reed and Graham “Tubby” Ritter in Australia's great race the 1971 Bathurst 1000.

I hope you like my post and thanks for the visit.
