Tim Wheatley and Tudor

Anyone know what happened to Tim Wheatley, seen here (I think) in the 1970s? I've Googled him and found someone of that name in Rally Driving, but don't think it's the same guy as he's probably too young.

I came up empty too, Adam, as far as where he is now.

I even searched obituaries.

Thanks for looking. If he is still driving, he recently did the London to Cape Town Rally! Can't find any pics though, to see if it's the same guy.

I saw that a Tim Wheatley did drive there, but there was nothing personally identifiable in the video I saw.
