THE Street Machine team and wider modified car community were shocked and saddened to learn that one of the legends of our sport, Rob Beauchamp, had passed away in May following a two-year battle with cancer, aged 67.
After building a tough HK Holden wagon that he raced at Surfers, Rob broke through nationally. It was a stand-out car at the 5th Street Machine Nationals, nabbed a stack of tinware, and ran into the 12s, before being sold to Wayne Pagel, who took it to even greater fame as GAS69.
