Jumping ahead in time, this is Grant Walker, over from New Zealand, when he contested selected rounds in the Australian Sports Sedan Championship. Walker ran races in the 1976 ASSC, as well as the 1976 Marlboro $100,000 Sports Sedan Series.

He took a single points placing in the ASSC, finishing 3rd at Surfers Paradise, while in the Malbroro series, he finished 8th in Round 2 (all the races were held at Calder Park) in a quality field. These are the only points placings I can find for him, but I assume he entered more races than just these two.

This car is, of course, the former factory racing RS2600 Group 2 car built for the 1973 ETCC, which was purchased late that year by Paul Fahey, and which, when later fitted with a Cosworth GAA V6, won the 1975 NZ Saloon Car Championship. Its rare to find a photo of it in these colours.
