Someone made mention of a PA Cresta in the LMC thread, so I thought I would post this newsreel brief clip showing French cars for Gerard, and a Vauxhall PA(for Bauble) at the 1960 Armstrong 500 miler at Phillip Island (The race that moved to Bathurst and is now the Bathurst 1000Klm). The Vauxhall won the race..... and still appears at Historic meetings in Victoria.

This is footage of other later Armstrong 500's along with a bit of a focus on the Cresta.
