Someone in your State's Sports Sedan association is likely to know the car/history.

He's not doing anything with it
He said the owner won't sell

Would be interesting to get some history on the old girl though

^ I'm pretty sure CAMS don't keep copies of the car log books, they are suppose to stay with the car.

yeah but surley they'd have a copy of who raced it at some stage?
it would be a start to tracing it's history

If it raced in Sports Sedans it is highly likely that someone on this forum will remember it.

There is a lot of panel beating equipment being advertised there.
Try Phil Munday. He was a mate of Brocks.
