Yeah the rear guard bit is mentioned on the sign in the above photo, half way down, and yes, apparently to clear the slicks.
I remember when Mark, the owner, telling me when he found out it was Ormsby's car, after searching for a fair while thinking it was an ex tourer. The rear guards had him stumped, because he could never find any historic info on any touring cars which had this mod done. Then the Larry Ormsby thing came up.
