Easter and Mark 5s

There are 2 Mark 5s coming to the next Easter in the Barossa. The last time I saw 2 Mark 5s in the same place at the same time was in about 1970 at the 6-hour at Winton when Chris Wall and Ross Smith both competed in the BCCA team. Both of those cars were almost unrecognisable as Mark 5s as they had been so radically altered, and neither of them exist today. Wouldn't it be great if we could convince George to bring his Mark 5 (above) and then there'd be 3.

Ross Smith Mark 5 was in Frankston 3 years ago.
It is very heavily customised from what i was told, front and rear and it has no roof! Apparently it did have a huge bonnet scoop still on it and a racing roll bar. I was told it was painted "Black" and Vic rego was AHR452. It may have been sold a few years back.
