AN ICON IS BORN
LVX 942J
1974 RAC Rally Victory
The famous LVX942J MK1 RS1600 is probably the most famous of the Mk1 rally cars of the era, car number 4 on the 1974 RAC Rally driven by Roger Clark and co-pilot Tony Mason. Their victory on the ’74 RAC rally was very significant as they became the first British crew to win the event after it moved on to forest special stages
