I saw that too! In the pic with me you can on the second car the driver names on the fender and the number covered with paper being applied to the door, on the mag photo the names are not on that car yet.

We have more slides from both the 77 and 78 rallies, all action shots, but none are too great. I do remember being in the garage and poking around. We followed the rally around a fair bit while it was on and near us.

The the thing I remember most though was all the news paper coverage it got and lots of good pics in the papers of cars stuck in water holes and broken down etc. Of course there was also pics of the odd native fan who got too close and got hit..... I still think somewhere my parents may have scrapbooks with the news aritcles, at least I hope!

The rally was one of the highlights of my 2 years of childhood there for sure. We owned one of only 8 porsches that were in the country at the time so we were treated pretty well when the show came to town....

Cheers
