This Chevrolet Chevelle Laguna #12 NASCAR racecar was built and raced by Bobby Allison. In 1973, the car won Riverside and also finished 7th in the Grand National Championship Points in the 1973 Winston Cup Series. This car was last driven by Bobby Allison at Talladega in August of 1974 and finished in 3rd place. In 1975 at Talladega, the car was driven by Neil Bonnett and finished 35th.
This car is restored to the 1974 Laguna Racing trim with the original 427 aluminum heads. After that year of racing the 427 engines, NASCAR required the teams to go to a smaller engine size. 1974 was also the first year of the Dry Brake replacing the Gas Cap and the first year of totally slick tires by Goodyear.
The car was sold to Digard Racing in 1976 where Donnie Allison raced it. It was then sold to Jeff Handy and was driven by Buck Baker, Buddy Baker, Elmo Langley, and Richie Panch.
The #12 Chevelle still has the original serial number B.A. 312-5. The B.A. stands for Bobby Allison and the 312 stands for his birthday of December 3. The 5 indicated this was the fifth chassis of that particular wheelbase built by Bobby Allison Racing, Inc. of Hueytown, AL.
