Video: 1987 Rocky Mountain Rally

I just came across this great video of the Rocky Mountain Rally way back in 1987 courtesy of Shawn Bishop at Rallysport.ca
This was a time when rear wheel drive rally cars still dominated the Canadian rally scene. I was at the Rally of the Tall Pines in 98 or 99 when Tim Bendle brought that yellow Datsun 510 out of retirement to have another go. The man is stunning to watch in the snow. In the early 90’s, I spent some time driving a Plymouth Fire Arrow that had a full rally suspension that had been pulled from a rally car that had some level of success. I wonder if it was one of these shown in the video.
