The fastest and most successful Chev Monza to grace Australian circuits was the wild-looking Bob Jane sports sedan. It was the last car Bob Jane raced in anger, before hanging up his helmet. The big-winged monster, built with a liberal dose of Aussie ingenuity, was also raced by fellow greats Peter Brock, Allan Grice, Dick Johnson, Bryan Thomson and Brad Jones. It all started way back in 1978 for Bob Jane and this Monza in the United States after Jane was seeking a replacement for his iconic Monaro. Fitted with a 350 Chev engine making in excess of 600 horsepower and like Bobs other race cars this one was certainly no slouch. In 1984 Allan Grice would go on to win his first national championship. Dick Johnson and Ron Harrop also raced it at Sandowns WEC round late in 1984. Grice won all but one race in the 1984 season. Following on from the Re-Car livery, the next owner was Bryan Thomson who bought the Monza to join his Mercedes for a tilt at the 1985 GT title. Looking to give the Monza a new look and a longer wheelbase, it just so happened that Thomson owned a Toyota Supra Road car. This is when the Monza was transformed into a Supra. After an extensive rebuild the car would go on to debut at the Amaroo Park at the start of the 1989 season. The Supra would go on to take 16 wins before Thomson hung up his helmet for good. In 1989 Thomson went on to sell the car to fellow long time Sports Sedan campaigner, Des Wall. The car would go on to race in almost every Sports Sedan round where it was very reliable and always competitive. Current owner David Wall also had a few races in the Supra which led him to a V8 Supercar drive.
