Not sure mate, but he had a VH in Finnigan Livery and the ex Negus Commodore and the Jane LJ Sports Sedan and a few other Commodore Grp Cs.

I am led to believe the MHDT Bathurst 83 VH (Watsons Roof Car) and one of the Day-Glo 84 VK's were in the van Wersch collection at some stage. Both are now supposed to be in the Champion collection.

Maybe I have my wires crossed.....The cars I am thinking of are VP's for memory. Maybe newer. Maybe I have Brockie as the wrong co-driver alongside LP?

I'm confused.

I thought Tratt had 2 AUs. One is now owned by the Seiders team and I thought the other had gone to the UK with Adam Sharpe.

Were there 3 Tratt AUs?

I thought the Sharpe car was a PWR car? Could be wrong though...

Sharpe has 2 AUs in the UK..one ex PWR and the other ex Tratt ( I thought).

The ex PWR unit he drove here last year is now in the hands of Garry Willmington and is now a V8 Giant.

Does anyone have any details of the Caltex Sierra that was for sale mid last year. It was the Colin Bond car that was co-driven by Alan Jones at Bathurst. Did it end up selling?

I saw that one too gkmarshall last Friday, sitting beside a red Torana L34 (or similar). If it was a replica it looks a pretty good replica from what I could see while sitting at the lights (it was on Stoney Creek Rd but I couldn't tell you which cross road). The rest of the showroom seemed to mainly be Jap imports.

I think the starting bid has scared people off.

Frank Binding has an ex Bob Holden Escort For $32K.

What's the history of this car? It's certainly not the original Kay VK (which is also for sale) & I don't think it's the ex Grant Dulux VK (the one that got trashed with the Kavich Commodore in practice '87), was it built new? Who built it?

For all the race cars going to and fro around the place, Here is an interesting one that will be landed in Australia shortly.

It seems this car is to be run in the Group C/Group A races here, possibly with a V8Supercar driver behind the wheel....

How can a car that has never run in Australian Group A be able to race over here? Or have they changed the rules for the category?
