Have to say ive never actually noticed and RS500 racers with the pneumatic valves for air jacks in that position before.

I can't really see where the blue piping is going from the turbo

Its not piping , its a serious Air filter /duct , that and the position of the Air jack lance will give the nature of this car away !

Well not rouse or eggenberger cars. Had a look at a few pics of Dick Johnson's cars and they didn't have them there.

Goode then? I know they raced in the far east.

As far as i can ascertain its the Peter brock , Andy Rouse car that ran Bathurst in '89 , its Rouses own 88/89 car apparently , look at the colour of the interior that should give the game away i think .






And the fuel cell detail is identical to my shell prepped by rouse , compare the pics in my resto page or on the Fast ford pics .
