Never-before-released recaps of the 1969 and 1974 Bathurst classics ...
The Seven Network's coverage of the early years of the Bathurst classic remains in the hearts and minds of motorsport fans all over Australia.
Now, for the very first time, Chevron is bringing back some 'Rare Mountain Memories' with previously-unreleased highlights of the 1969 Hardie-Ferodo 500 and the 1974 Hardie-Ferodo 1000 direct from the Seven telecasts of the day.
Both races are covered in 30-minute highlights taken from the original broadcast as it went to air around Australia on the Seven Network.
They've been buried in the archives for all these years and the black and white vision has been brought back to life to recall two of Bathurst's memorable races.
The 1969 race featured the debut of both Peter Brock and Allan Moffat and victory by the Holden Dealer Team Monaro of Colin Bond and Tony Roberts, while the 1974 rain-marred race saw victory for John Goss and Kevin Bartlett.
