EDITORS COMMENTS

A sleek and powerful Bentley drophead coupe with a Barker body takes center stage as it competes against other formidable vehicles in the prestigious JCC Rally. The vintage car, identified by its registration number AXY216 and chassis number B117AE, exudes elegance and sophistication amidst an atmosphere charged with excitement. Behind the wheel is renowned rally driver Bill Brunell (WJ), his skillful hands expertly maneuvering this classic automobile through every twist and turn. As spectators line both sides of the bridge overlooking the track, their eyes are fixed on Brunell's daring drive. The timeless beauty of this monochrome image transports us back to an era when motor sport was at its zenith - a testament to Britain's rich automotive heritage. This photograph serves as a window into history; it captures not only a thrilling moment but also showcases how transport evolved during that period.
