 Great to see this car back!!! I could be wrong, but I'm sure that is Beach road, Brighton/St kilda (Vic). I couldn't imagine someone with Eric's public profile, driving his car on a public road if it wasn't 100% kosher. Unlike myself at times, and perhaps one or two other here

I doubt it would have been repaired under insurance, therefore not being a write off. You can see some rebuild pics showing a new rear 1/4 and RHF chassis rails and rad support. Can't see any reason for it not being unregesterable. Keep in mind that its not under general rego and normal rules don't apply.
