1981,I think?This is the outfit I copied the paint job off.When I spoke to Trevor,he reckons this outfit was sold by him to an Australian,and that the last he had heard it was on display in the Bathurst museum,I could be wrong?If you do have this outfit I have a full set of glass moulds for that bodywork,and I will this next year be getting at least one fairing done,if you need one let me know.
