Title: The master mechanic
Description: The small town of Hunterville was a centre of motor racing excellence in the 1960s and '70s, visited by a veritable who's-who of national and international motor racing personalities, thanks to one man - Bruce Wilson. From repairing old race cars in his rural garage business to a Ferrari factory team and building March Can-Am cars, Bruce was part of this special time. The Master Mechanic also relates Bruce's personal journey, driven by his obsessive expectations of excellence from himself and those around him. A must read for every motor racing enthusiast and a valuable addition to the growing record of New Zealand's 'golden era' of motor sports, The Master Mechanic is generously illustrated with many previously unseen photographs and those of several of our top past and present photographers.
