The news release for the first Torana was dated 21st May 1967, but the first cars would've been built well before that date.

Thank-you Dr Terry,

 

So do you think that would be a good Date to have the NTD,

 

or would the Day that Brocky Won the First Bathurst Race in 1972 be better.

A toranafest in each state on the same day would be a good thing if it could happen.
