I believe it was damaged by Matich at Lakeside. It apparently sustained "more damage" after the accident and was an insurance write off.Originally Posted by Steve Holmes
Really stunning shot here of Frank Matich, aboard his lovely Lotus 19B. Where is this car today?
I will check up with Geoff Smedley down the road. Geoff was a race mechanic employed by Total at the time.
I am sure he told me that he took the suspension uprights and after machining etc he used them in the Matich SR 3....correction...used in the Traco Olds at Elfin in Adelaide. Geoff took whole wreck to Adelaide...see later post

Smed did this pencil drawing of the car....
