The first Pred tourer was the 95 Tee, before the FTD came along. Not sure if they released a conversion kit as well, but wouldn't be suprised if they did - I just haven't got any advertising blurb on them, but Peter may well have. Dez's car looks to be a original Pred buggy upgraded and converted to touring car ( lots were back then ) if it does have a 3 at the start of the chassis number that would make the most sense.
