He put the 6 cylinder Holden motor into a Torana XU1 body and that is the car that Dr John Elliott runs in Centrals.
The 315 had gone from Jen to Phil Rudd.
Then to Graeme
Did a deal with Derek Mitchell, who then sold it to a chap with gliders in Kawerau.
Graeme then bought it back, used it for a while, then sold it to a chap in Taranaki- logical with these colours.
Still digging and will post results as they come to hand.

The chap in the Naki might well have been Darcy May - he ran a car that ticks all these boxes in sprints my club ran at Taupo a few years ago.
