Plans for an exhibition celebrating the life and achievements of former world rally champion Colin McRae have been announced.
The display will include the famous Subaru Impreza car in which McRae, who died in a helicopter accident two years ago, became Britain's first world rally champion in 1995.
The car will form the centrepiece of the exhibition at the Riverside Museum which is being built on the banks of the River Clyde, Glasgow.
Mr McRae, his five-year-old son Johnny, six-year-old Ben Porcelli, and 37-year-old friend Graeme Duncan all died in the crash of the Eurocopter Squirrel helicopter on September 15, 2007.
The helicopter went down just 150 yards from the intended landing spot in the grounds of 39-year-old's home near Lanark in South Lanarkshire..
Jimmy McRae, who is the father of the late champion, said: "We hope that the display will inspire a new generation of drivers and also capture a little of the excitement and flair that Colin brought to the sport.
"The popularity Colin had, I think, will bring a few more people through the doors of the museum."
The Subaru is the first of a number of loans from McRae Motorsports to the exhibition which will be regularly updated and changed.
The Riverside Museum will open its doors in summer 2011.
Lord Smith of Kelvin, Chairman of the Riverside Museum Appeal (RMA), said: "I am honoured to welcome Colin McRae's Subaru car to the new displays within the Riverside Museum. I am proud that the McRae family chose to be associated with the museum and through this partnership we can together celebrate one of Scotland's greatest sporting heroes."
