So what was the Mustang run by Barnes? It looks like a copy of Moffats.

Secondly are the Kevin Clark and Reda Awadallah cars both Jimmys car or just the Clark one ?

All the same car.

Built by Barnes, sold to Clark, sold to Awadallah.

As Bomn said, all the same car, but a completely different car to the Richards car which went straight back to NZ when JR was finished with it, and bought by George Sheweiry. By coincidence, Sheweiry also painted his Mustang in the Zakspeed style black/red/yellow colours.
