The other leading cars of Moffatt and Miedecke were ex Eggenberger weren't they?

Moffatt's was definitely an Eggenberger. The 88 Bathurst annual suggests it was a new build customer car. Miedecke's came from the Oxo-backed Don Smith outfit Miedecke had driven for in '87, and and were of Rouse origin. There was also at least one Wolf RS500, brought to Australia by Mark Petch and Robbie Francevic- according to the Bathurst annual, a new Wolf car arrived in Australia early in 88 for Francevic, but wasn't allowed to race because of irregularities in the rear subframe, and the deal collapsed. Petch then apparently put together a deal to run one of Wolf's regular ETCC chassis at Bathurst for Francevic and Armin Hahne
