I've not seen it since Phil.
I doubt it's in the UK?

I remember Waldergard clobbered the back end against an armco when he borrowed the red car for the first Coys Rallysprint. So it wasn't the first time the rear corner suffered.

My photo above, is when the owner was driving it on the same event in 2000. Waldergard was driving the David Sutton Alitalia car that year. The year that he flagged down Paul Hassall's Hawk, thinking it was the car he would soon be driving. He wanted to try out the seat. I wish I'd seen that.

I remember looking under the dash........... the wiring was like a rat's nest !!!!!!!!!!!........... how anything worked I'll never know.......... just looked as if sparks and fire were just waiting to get out !!..........

Don't know where it ended up............ Japan ??

That's standard, isn't it?
