A car has been linked to the suspected murder of north Queensland mother Rene Latimore, whose body was found on a rural property near Mackay in August.

Ms Latimore was reported missing from Koumala, south of Mackay, on August 18 and her body was found 11 days later.

Police have released few details about the case but she's suspected to have been murdered, with homicide detectives trying to track down a car linked to her death.

They released photos on Thursday of the car travelling on Schirmer Rd, Koumala, on the evening of August 9.

"Anyone with information regarding this vehicle or information in relation to Rene's death are urged to contact police," detectives said in a statement.

Police have also appealed for anyone who had any form of contact with Ms Latimore in the months before her death to come forward.

Detective Inspector Tom Armitt said last month that the property where her body was found belonged to Ms Latimore's family for "quite some time".

But he said it was recently sold and the family was yet to vacate the site.

The property is more than 240 hectares and consists of grazing land, dense bush and rainforest.
