Lost Race Cars

[conrod]

changing up a gear to the 1980's, does anyone know what became of this car?





A Ford Sierra/Merkur XR4Ti, it was first raced in NZ at the 1986 Wellington street race by Andy Rouse and David Oxton ( DNF - crash)

and then bought by Mark Petch and raced by Dave Oxton, Francevic (Bathurst) etc. It seems to have disappeared, and MP does not remember where it went after his ownership. It was not the car that was converted into a Thundersaloon (the BP one) driven by Francevic, that car was an Eggenberger and LHD. The car above is a RHD. It may well have been converted into an RS500, or another Sports Sedan/Thundersaloon, but that is only speculation on my part.

I would really like to know its whereabouts if anyone can shed any light on it.
