Here is another of the visiting South Island OSCA teams from that same tour. I think this is Gary Jenkins' wild Chevy V8 powered Vauxhall Victor. Note the reinforced wheels. This was a popular trick at the time for teams on limited budgets who couldn't afford the latest magnesium or alloy racing wheels.

I'm sure this car appeared before either the Jack Nazer or Greg Lancaster V8 Victors.

Pretty sure it first appeared 1973 Steve, which definitely predates the other 2, and is still the only one in active circulation, of the course the Lancaster one no longer exists.
