No new home for Peter Brock's Commodore after auction ends
A distinctive Holden Commodore that was the personal company car of motorsports legend Peter Brock has not managed to find a new home after an online auction ended with the car unsold.
The Holden Commodore (VK) SS HDT Group A was offered through Collecting Cars.
With just over a day to go, bids had reached $380,000. Bidding closed on Thursday afternoon.
9news.com.au has contacted the auctioneers to ask what might come next for the iconic car - which you can see more of in the following slides.
"It is certified by an HDT letter as initially being Peter Brock's personal company car, signed by his long-time teammate, the late John Harvey," Collecting Cars said.
"The light blue interior retains its factory-fitted Scheel front sports seats trimmed to match the rear bench with velour bolsters and patterned cloth centres."
The car also includes a Peter Brock-branded cassette player and a leather-trimmed Momo steering wheel.
"Undoubtedly one of the world's most desirable 'Blue Meanies' given its provenance, it will make a significant addition to any collection," the auctioneers said.
It's powered by a 4.9-litre A9L V8 engine.
Collecting Cars called the Commodore, with its distinctive blue finish, "a sought-after homologation special performance saloon and a notable part of Australian motorsport history".
Overall, the car has had four owners.
There 79,724km on the odometer.
