Pretty sure it isn't a TMac flatty.
That bonnet sucks, throw it away and get one in a 1974 style. ;D
A lot of the car looks newer than 1974, possibly an old Forest Lake one that got upgraded for a standard stock at some stage and ran at Huntly.
Will look through some photos and see if I can spot anything similar.
