I find it a little hard to believe that Peter Brock did own it, it is an 80837, which could have been a V8. But he would have had a 350.

Makes for a good story though.

Will register easily. Only need the chassis number. Tags are irrelevant for a HK.

He might have trouble only because it's apparently stroked to a 475 cubic inch. Not hard to whack a regular aussie 350 in there though.
