Very interesting - I often wondered what happened to it.
In 1980 myself and a colleague held an exhibition & track display at Brands Hatch.
One of our exhibitors brought along the Wolfrace Sonic and displayed it at the entrance to the Pentagon.
I have attached a photo where you can see it beyond the front of my car.

All the toil and trouble put into this monster, and your "simple" and dramatic English GT blows it away.
Still, great pic!!
