Mark, I was going to say that Alan had the cars on display and doing demo laps for the first Adelaide AGP. Photos appearing in the 1986 AGP programme. But ardmore has given us his great photos (if correct) the display was in Wakefield St.
The 908 was the road registered car with AH 908 plates as shown on the cover of Wheels mag. Exact issue is currently unavailable, but I might have it here somewhere. And a quick scratch in the Wheels archive yelded nothing yet.
Tony has supplied photos from a later AGP involving The Climb to the Eagle, but I'm yet to load them to postimage. He quotes 917/30-005 as the chassis number.

Any cars not on the program entered the circuit from Wakefield St.
I am unsure of where any display was. Wakefield St at the time was a wide st with centre island parking so probably there somewhere near the entrance. These days one lane each way with bicycle lanes and indented parking. Dumb dumb and dumber.
When I did display laps we were parked at the Torrens Parade ground. Organisation was simply not there. We were supposed to drive up King Williams St with the lights turned off and return via Pultney St non stop with a police escort. It did not happen, Friday lunchtime traffic!! Sort of ended up a burnout comp in King Wm st. Cos Monterosso started it! The guys in open wheelers had truck and bus exhausts in their cockpits,, charming, NOT.
We were given unregistered permits to drive them. Ofcourse the permit is for an unregistered roadworthy vehicles. Not very unroadworthy [but trackworthy] race cars
