They are asking anyone living in the area to get in touch if they have any information.
Between 1989 and 1994 only 100 new R32s were delivered to Australia, so the Skyline The GT-R is one of the rarest cars in the entire country. And this car has a rich history in Australia. During the 1990s he competed in the Australian Touring Car Championship (ATCC) and the Gibson Motorsport team won the ATCC and Bathurst 1000 championships with their R32 racing cars in 1991 and 1992.
