Year would help.

I do not know! I am pretty certain it is not the '87 WTCC race.Ian.

It was Alan Cattle's JPS E30 M3.

I haven't seen him in ages, so I don't know where the car is. Alan would have the cars log-book if he has the car still.

Jim Richards won the Aussie Touring Cars with it before it came here.

Conrod may know more. I don't know whether it was a factory car before that, or whether Frank Gardner had it built for him.

When Andrew gets my video back, I've got video of it somewhere.

If you search s14.net you will find that he is a member on that site. OZM3 posted some pix of the car, plus the JPS 635 as he mentions that he is a friend of his.
