Thanks for this. I thought I saw the car in a TV newsflash. One of the accused apparently races it. A big bust going all the way to the top of the ATO. Cheers

Interesting story .. be interesting to find out what eventuates.

BTW .. The rear view of that GT40 replica (I assuming) isn't flattering. I was sure original ones looked nicer than that. It's an important view to get right as it would be the one most people would see ;)

No he doesn't race this, but has (had) a racing team. He is the son of the deputy commissioner of taxation and has been arrested in one of the biggest tax scams in Australian history. Hence Iggle Piggle's headline.

A dumb idea dressed up as a pig with lipstick, this type of fraud unwinds and has a very short shelf life...

Suspect the court case will go on longer than the fraud...

It's definitely a replica, in fact it (the kit) was built by these guys.....
