You're getting your JUNs mixed up. This car had nothing to do with JUN Auto Mechanic! The JUN in question is the much older [i]apparel[/i] company JUN CO.

Kev, There's PLENTY of data and photos of these and many other race cars of this period in old issues of Japanese race magazines like AUTO SPORT, AUTO TECHNIC and RACING ON. No, no, no.

I have Lemans on DVD from 1979-1991. Another notable manufacturer you will see labeled on some Le Mans cars from as early as 1983 is RAYS. Anyone who has $72AU would be interested in this http://www.biante.com.au/product_19636.htm That raced in the IMSA GTO class in Le Mans. I have Lemans on DVD from 1979-1991.
