The body shell of the Crowe Starlet wound up with Dave Bray, chassis and roll cage builder, who was at the time in Pakuranga, later Howick, and was built into a modified sportsman that ran at Waikaraka with a straight 6 Valiant based motor. Dave is the brother of Frank, who ran sports cars, and father of Daniel, very successful kart racer.

Thanks Rhys, I knew it no longer existed, but didn't know its ultimate fate. Crowe sold the car to Palmerston North racer Mike Moore, who initially circuit race it before it was converted to a speedway car.
