Bruce Alexander McPhee (born 1927) is an Australian former motor racing driver.

He is most famous for winning the Hardie Ferodo 500 (now the Bathurst 1000 in 1968, defeating both the Holden and Ford factory teams. He drove a Holden Monaro GTS327 painted yellow and black stripes with the number 13. His co-driver, who drove just one lap that day, was Barry Mulholland.

In 1969 McPhee and Mulholland, driving a privately-entered Ford Falcon GTHO, finished a close second at Bathurst to the Colin Bond/Tony Roberts Monaro GTS350. McPhee briefly joined the Ford works team for the 1970 Hardie-Ferodo 500. He finished second after following team orders not to pass lead Ford driver Allan Moffat.

He currently lives on the Central Coast.
