Falc, I believe that Bowden's website has something on it, and that the 1972 Moffat Bathurst car beacme the 1973 ATCC winner... but was not the 1971 winner.

In Grant's ownership (and in Grants 1984 colours) it spent several stints in the Bathurst museum.

The ex-rock car is around... somewhere. There have been whispers about it's whereabouts, but apparently the current owner is happy to have it sitting quietly where it is for the time being. I wandered around the 1981 XD again on Saturday... a lovely car, but it would be marvellous if it was one day returned to it's original colour and livery, having been quickly resprayed in an approximation when DJ got it back. Mind you the 1984 XE is completely original and in qonderful condition, as is the Sierra... the Mustang needs some alteration though, and the 1993 EB would appear to be a work in progress, and going on the prelimary bit of signage going onto it, may well be going into its 1993 livery instead of the Bathurst-winning 1994 warpaint.
