I've got a heap of old street-stocker speedway photos, lots of toranas over the years, but you'll need to give more details ont he car, where it raced etc etc
Any photos of this old girl? Raced mainly in Newcastle area 1976-77, by Bruno Landkauf as #147 (Australian Saloon Car Federation), then sold to and raced by Wayne Young in same area. Later sold to Doug Hawkins (ex Bathurst driver) and raced by special permission in 1985 season at Gunnedah area. It was by special permission as it had a square roll cage.

There are quite a few original sports sedans about.I dought very much if your car is ex speedway dirt car as they would not be restorable to street use and it would not be a super sedan as they were all hand made chassi's and fibreglass bodies if you can post a photo of your car i would know if it raced at liverpool as i raced there for 16 years
Post as many pics as you can......including underneath. There should still be some tell ale ndicators, no matter what you've done to it.
Did you bare metal it for the resto? No? Then gently take to it with the sander and take it back layer by layer to show old paint colours, taking pics at every stage.
Then post them up!

Did it start life as a series production car in 1972? I have some photos in older magazines of (what I think is) the Pat Cullen purple LJ series prod car.

Can't help with the XU1, but Peter Crick was sponsored by McGrath Holden by 1974
