There's nothing in the registry,
For sale in Johannesburg SA, Chevy engine?
The owner at the time it was advertised for sale in December, Sports & GT Classics, reported that this 1983 GT5 RHD was originally imported from Italy by a South African agent without the drivetrain. The car has 85,685 miles on it. Sports & GT Classics acquired the car from JB Classics Cars in Cape Town in 2015, and then kept it in their museum. It sold recently for $117,334 USD.

As was said, no info on the original Registry or in Peter Havlik's 9000-series Registry (on the POCA Web site). But #9240, -41, -42 and #9245 are all shown as GT-5 with two being right hand steer, so we can cautiously infer that 9243 is as well. The GM engine is easily replaced with a 351-C and the conversion bell housing has some value to kit car builders. Rest looks fine.
