I think I've read somewhere (possibly '87 Bathurst Yearbook) that the Bond 75 was built by Luigi in Belgium, but then substantially reworked in Australia- think the book suggests Network Alfa were less than happy with the car as delivered.

There's some subsequent history of the car here on the 'GpA/C/SCV8- Where are they now?' thread, suggesting the car was converted to a Sports Sedan by Bob MacDonald around 1991, and written off by him at Oran in 1996

Interestingly, it also mentions a possible second 75 Turbo, entered at a couple of 1988 ATCC rounds by a Gerard Murphy- this car also being written off in a testing shunt by the team's mechanic...
