Car Stories
Peter Brock and Brock Racing Enterprises (BRE) made history with the #46 Datsun 510, driven by John Morton, by clinching the SCCA Trans Am Under 2.5 Liter Championship in both 1971 and 1972—an achievement that stunned the racing world. The 1971 victory, in particular, was seen as a major upset, as few believed the modest Japanese Datsun could rival the dominant Alfas and BMWs. Its triumph earned it the nickname “giant killer” and helped cement Nissan/Datsun’s reputation as a serious performance brand. Today, Morton’s championship-winning car remains untouched, proudly wearing its original racing livery, and stands as one of the most iconic and celebrated race cars in American motorsport history.
