If memory serves, a team (BJR?) was fined 10-15 years ago for starting to construct a new chassis without having filled out the correct paperwork with VESA.

Penske offered the category their services, to use their robots to build basic shells at a very cheap price, but was quickly rejected. They prefer Australian made.

Zak Brown has the ex-WR winning Bathurst car in Europe, T8 have sold a couple of cars to Asia (Thailand?). Plenty of ex-Supercars around the world.
