Hey Wil, as you know the original 64 Datto was designed by Peter Brock USA. Richard Bendell (owner Motec) and good friend of Peter Brock USA, designs and builds replica Daytonas loosely based on the original. All except 1 (Tim Hendy's which ended up back in the factory anyway) was built in house by Richard Bendell, designed by Ross Holder and the chassis builder was Michael Borland (race car builder Borland Racing Developments)

The first car was built in 2001. Mine is number 8. The car Peter Brock AUS was one of the first 3 I think. It has since been rebuilt by James Bendell and last I heard Peter Champion had it in his museum.

All 14 (?) Daytona Sports Car Daytona's have a plaque mounted on the dash in memory of PB Aus.

Hope that helps. Cheers Matto
