Not sure of the origins of that car but during a (rare then) 30 min race, after Reg had left the pitlane from his mandatory pitstop, it was hit from behind, by a little Fiat 128 3p. I remember being amazed that the rear wheels of the Dolly were pushed so far forward!! I believe the car was scrapped afterwards.
