Tim Bailey's Porsche 911

[Steve Holmes]

This is another request from Jim Barclay, of the New Zealand Festival of Motor Racing, which in 2016 is celebrating Porsche.

Jim sent me this photo, and was hoping to get some help in identifying the owner of this Porsche 911.

This photo was snapped at the Glenvale 200, at Bay Park, in August 1975. The registration number of the Porsche is the same as on the 911 raced by Tim Bailey a few years earlier in the 1972 Castrol GTX series.

So, question is; is this the same car? And, if it is, does Tim still own it in this photo, or is it owned by someone else?

Thanks in advance.

I am missing August of 1975 from my MotorAction collection Steve, however, from the Splashe 200 at Manfield in February 1975 we have a reference that states.

"Tony Warren had the ex Bailey Rally Porsche 911T with the CMR team looking after it and had a few problems in practise getting it to all work properly."`

The event programme doesn't list the Porsche as entered in the main race but in the preliminary race, the Golden 100, Porsche No.80 was entered by Rentokil Pest Control Ltd for Tim Bailey to drive.
