Not all the paint was stripped off between paint jobs. There was one more colour scheme, white with red stripes along the sides and carrying Trans Tours sponsorship from Australia, When Robing Tanner bought the car it was still in Aust and it ran at least the first race meeting back here (Bay Park) with Rod driving it. Then Robin painted it red.

I wonder if they stripped off the old paint each time a new layer was added? Bruce?
