Default Photo request : Texaco RS500

If anyone could help please.....

I'm looking for photos (and technical documents if anyone has any ) of the Texaco RS500's that ran in the BTCC Series in the late eighties. External, internal underneath, whatever you have

I know martinlabatts has one on here but didn't want to pester him direct.... yet lol

Cheers,

Chris

"The only outright winner to be disqualified. The 'works' Texaco Sierra of Soper/Dieudonne, the best looking car in the international field, was alleged to have used illegal fuel to win. After 6 months in court it was found that both Texaco Sierras passed the fuel analysis but were found guilty of having wider than permitted wheel arches and Peter Brock was awarded his 9th 'win' being the third place getter. The bitterness of the race with protest upon protest led to long time Great Race sponsor, James Hardie Industries, withdrawing sponsorship from the event. "

Cheers , I've got that one having done the usual google trawl, but guessed that some of the enthusiasts on here might have some in their own 'collections'.
