Since the photos in that 'Sporting Register' article were taken, a set of perspex headlight covers have been fitted. The owner of the other Marcos which was imported at the same time, Geoff Dunlop in Sydney, was kind enough to make up a set from moulds he'd made from his car many years ago.

Thanks for your kind words Matt. If you're interested in seeing the car in the flesh, come visit sunny Victoria - it'll be running at the Geelong Revival, Eastern Beach Historic Sprints on Sunday 30th November - Happy to meet 'ausmini' members too.
