That'll be a March Ford 2-4-0 six-wheeled F1 car.

Don't think it raced in anger, I think it was just a prototype.

Had a Scalextrics car of that one in the 70s/80s. Went like stink round the corners.

britishtrident - 4/2/09 at 08:40 AM

Blame messers Herd & Mosley --- Mosley for thinking up the idea to get publicity hence more sponsorship money and Herd for drawing it up.


oldtimer - 4/2/09 at 08:55 AM

Ford Prefect? driver that is.


designer - 4/2/09 at 09:02 AM

The guyson beadblasting sponsored car is driven by the owners son, or could be the boss now; whose name I have forgotten! James???

Won the Hillclimb championship many years ago, then tried to go further but never made it.


James - 4/2/09 at 11:43 AM

My claim to fame!


My friend and ex-boss Neil Trundle was involved in building the Tyrell car.
