The talented artist Bill Brunell skillfully immortalizes this iconic moment in British motor racing history. The AC 5, a classic car of its time with a powerful 1496 cc engine, gleams under the sunlight as it speeds along the historic motor racing circuit. With Event Entry No: 69 proudly displayed on its body, this vintage automobile showcases both elegance and speed. GC Stead, an accomplished racing driver of his era, confidently takes control of the cockpit. His focused gaze behind goggles reveals determination and passion for his craft. A true gentleman driver from England's motorsport scene during the early twentieth century.
