The only Bathurst winner to be converted to AUSCAR was the 1980 MHDT VC Commodore. After Keogh purchased it in 1983 and ran Group C through to Bathurst 1984, it was sold to Mike Burgman as a "donor car" for his Bob Stevens built VK Group A. Greg East then bought the car and started to convert it to VK Group A but sold it before completion to Richard Blackney in Victoria who had Ray Robbins convert it to AUSCAR. It then went to Henry Jones who ran it as a Sportsman in the mid 90's, had a big crash, re-shelled it then ran it a few more times before retiring.
