Thanks for clearing that up Paul.

But did the LHD 'Mildren No 1' go West at the time of the RHD car becoming available or some time later?

I've checked Alleggerita and Mildren No.1 came to Australia in November 65 and was sold to Gordon Stephenson in October 1966. Overtime the GTA was turned into a sports sedan (probably how it lost its firewall) and then suffered a major accident. Not sure if the wreck survives.

The RHD GTA, chassis no. 762561 (I think!) arrived in Australia in August 1966 to replace the LHD GTA. Not sure of the rationale, though the LHD GTA's major races were at Sandown (6 Hour) and Bathurst (66 ATCC) which were both anti-clockwise, whereas the RHD GTA's major races were at Warwick Farm and Lakeside (67 ATCC) which were clockwise circuits.
