As soon as I think Zephyr, I can’t help but think of John Peterson! A great mate and an out and out Zephyr legend! To hear that 289 Windsor scream it’s nuts off.. you were just waiting for the huge “bang” (which never eventuated!) was amazing!
Also never seen someone swap cogs with a toploader like him.. Absolutely brutal!

Had to dig the memory bank for this ........... Barry Sharp had a 289ci Mk2 that he used to race at Calder during 1967.
Photos of it at Oran Park seem to show it as LHD. Hmmmm .....Curious.
