The photo attached is from one of the early editions of Motor Racing Australia. The car looks like it was one of the Listerine Vic Lee Motorsport cars:
As to its whereabouts after the 1992 AGP, I have no ideas. Maybe contact Morris, Gardner or Longhurst? |
Definitely one of the Vic Lee cars- still in the basic VLR/Shell/Listerine colours. The Prodrive cars were white, and from memory went to Matt Neal and Team Dynamics, one late in the 92 season, and the others for 93.
There were 3 VLR cars- did just the one go to Australia, they didn't appear again in the BTCC as I remember...?
