Targa Florio 1975

[Mirage M6]

I would like to know some information about Targa 75: results, entries, race story...

[Mirage M6]

You know it´s very difficult to find info about Targa Florio for 74, 75, 76, and 77 years, when was a non-championship race; Anyone can help me?

I'm not sure the exact year it ran, but the Australian Leyland P76 which won one of the stages has been reasonably well documented and should appear in a google search. Evan Green was the lead driver and wrote a book called "A Boot Full of Right Arms", based on the number of people who said they would have given their right arms to have been on the rally with him.

Thank you very much for the info. I knew this site, but I’ve never looked in non-championship races.

As you said, I’ve found info about Leyland P76. This is the best example I have (from allsuburbs.com):

(Please just provide the link as I have done above, otherwise we have potential coyright issues - see FAQs - JT)

I think Leyland P76 competed in Italy rally 1974 edition, because Targa Florio was a race without stages. I´ve also looked Targa Florio´s entry list (1974) and I haven´t seen any P76.
Anyway thanks a lot for your help

You are right, it was the Targa Florio stage of the 1974 World Cup rally
