After its 1969 accident with Brent Hawes the engine and gearbox went into a new Begg single-seater which became better known as the Begg-Daimler.

Murray Elwood and Rod McElrea rebuilt the sportscar in Ashburton with 3.5 Oldsmobile V8 engine and raced it as the Elmac in 1971 after which it reverted to the Begg name and passed via John Armstrong of Dunedin to Lyn Johnson of Timaru 1972, Larry O’Connor of Whakatane 1972-73, then Geoff Scholes of Christchurch with 2.0 engine (don't recall what make).

Last I heard (about five years ago) it was owned by Neville Brumby, Gore
