Lant RTs

I have a Lant or it could be a Ralt RT2 which i hillclimb ,sprint and race in Ireland. From what i know it originated in South Africa manufactured y Mel Lahner of Lant Cars. It has the large fuel cell which appears to be original ,not modified afterwards. It is wide track 62" and has conventional rocker beam suspension at the front with vertical inboard Koni's. It last came from the England where it had been fitted with a BDG. Prior to that it is supposed to have been in the far east where it was raced by an Indian Prince. It may have had a Mazda Rotary engine fitted but not sure. All the suspension uprights are original Ralt mag castings The car has an identity stamp on the top left of the front alloy bulkhead with RR 8304 stamped on it. Someone removed some stamped letters or numbers located before the RR with a rotary burr. Anyone out there have any ideas or comments as to where this car has been since the 80's
