The article mentions that the car was at the AGP in Adelaide in 1985. I saw it there. It was at the Classic Adelaide in 1999, and I saw it there too, with Big Rev Kev at the wheel. At the time, and with the scarcity of original GT40s in Australia, I assumed that it was probably a good replica (it was painted in Gulf colours, as are a lot of replicas), but I now know that it was GT40P/1034.
My apologies to 1034 for thinking it was a replica!
