    Bob Hindson racing

    Was preparing my latest project for body and paint work - 1973 911S - and came across this 1983 sticker - Bob Hindson Racing .

    BHR, Inc. was founded by Bob Hindson in May 1971 as an alternative to dealer repair and service. Bob was a factory trained Porsche technician and previously a factory team race driver for Datsun and Porsche. Bob was fundamental in the development of the “famous six” 914-6’s that were campaigned in 1970 and 1971 in the SCCA. Bob was chosen with the likes of Peter Gregg, Elliot Forbes Robinson, Richie Ginther and Alan Johnson to campaign the 914’s for Porsche. Bob’s most famous and notable achievement was back to back victories at the Daytona 24 hour in 1976 and 1977. Along with this, Bob also won 13 Divisional Championships in the SCCA. With Bob’s racing success’s BHR’s reputation for quality repair work was cemented.
