I'm friends with a good mate of Marc Oberg, so i just shot him an email and will see what i can find out.

Price is probably achieveable, especially when someone paid $200+K (incl buyers premium) for a roadie A9X Sedan last week!

Come on now people, $200k-$500K for a creaky old 1970's sedan? What has the world come to?

A bit pedantic there. Sure they've only been called "Super" for the past decade but I think you know that the Shell Aust Touring Car Championship in 1994 had a few EBs running as "Artists soon to be known as V8 Supercars."

It was converted to rally specification, and run by Andrew Williamson in the NSW state rally series for quite a long time. Not sure where it ended up after that... perhaps a call to Pacific Motors will bring back the memories....

Was for sale recently, I think the owner was in Canberra and dot in a huge hurry to sell. Try searching on google for it, I think Anthony Hyde's Volvo site would have some info or a link.

Don't know Anthony's site name, but there is a link to it on www.ovlov.net

Yep, that would be the one bought by the O'Brien family and run as a sports sedan for a few years. It's still in the O'Brien Aluminium colours.

I presume This Alfa was the Toy Shop car, that became the 2nd factory car.. and later the blue & white Pye car??

No price...

I thought this chassis got wrecked at one stage? :confused:

And is it the same one Barry Lake tested for Motor?

Nope, that would be the ex-Bond car from 1986. That was a brand new shell that replaced the Luigi-built car that was written off in the mass pile-up in the 1985 Surfers enduro. This car was indeed the one track-tested by Barry Lake in 1986.

The other car - the one Bond started out driving in 1985 - was the ex-Group E car from 1984, converted for Group A use. This became the Toy Shop car for late 1985, before becoming the Pye car for the 1986 JH1000. I think this car later became a sports sedan.

If you have a search, prn 31 gave a very good summation of the chassis histories of these cars earlier in this thread (or the other Group A one, or the other other Group A one, I'm not sure).

Wow! Big money for a car with no really outstanding history. Presumably, it's the ex Perkins unit used in the ATCC, not the TWR built machine driven to victory at Bathurst that year by Grice/Percy.
