Definitely two different chassis- think it was mentioned earlier in the thread that the Duckhams prodsaloon was, as you said, an ex-Mike Smith Ilford car- the Willhire winner I think and apparently the first Prodsaloon RS Turbo built, and the Group A car an ex-Datapost car, the Curnow chassis I think.
There was a back-to-back track test of the pair by Tiff Needell in Autosport at the end of '86.
