And for good measure, here's a photo of the yellow one at Winton in 1981 under new ownership I would presume.
Turners were not spectacular in appearance or mechanically revolutionary but a delight nevertheless because they were fast, efficient, handled well and were fun to drive.

Perhaps a relevant comment is that Turner were a Uk based kit car manufacturer and the 2 seater sports variations were fibreglass bodied kit cars originally and hence lighter than mainstream production cars.With modified Ford 4 cylinder were very quick.
You could actually buy a steel bodied version. It depended what year it was.
The yellow one at Winton was Richard Runnels in the ex Paul Hamilton car which is now owned by Ian Barbarie from Taree
He has restored it and it is in the same state as raced by Wal Donnaly
I am not sure about the other car but it could be one of Des Lucas,s cars as he lived in Ballarat i think.
