Chris Townsend should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Keke drove B39 in NZ ONLY in 1978. David McKinney took all the Opert chassis nos, and they used B34s in 77.

B39-07 went to NZ but seems to have been intended as Laffite's car before his deal fell through. Opert said to McKinney that 07 had been Young's car [reported in NZMA] and it seems to have been the team spare. IF Keke drove it in NZ it was probably in practice at the first round.
