The winner of heat six of the Kingstown Shipping & RH Insurance Car of the Year at the Damn Yankees Summer Slam, held at North Weald, was this stunning 1967 Buick Riviera, belonging to Nick Barnes from Enfield, Essex.

This California car has had a respray in the original Buick colour of Platinum Mist, but retains a stunning original and unmarked black vinyl interior with immaculate real wood trim.
