Swallow Doretti

1954 model - Commission # 1170

Doretti No.1170 was shipped from the UK to Australia in 1983 where it was restored from the ground up with tarmac rallying in mind.

Under its previous owner, Joe Caudo, it successfully competed in the Targa Tasmania and Classic Adelaide events, winning its class and category in each.

Fitted with a 2100cc engine, close ratio 4-speed gearbox with overdrive, later Triumph disc front brakes, a limited slip differential, Lacarra steering wheel and chrome wire wheels.
