Rob,
My Lola ran the 1965 Bridgehampton Double 500, driven by Buck Fulp. SL-70-09

Mine has lower rear trailing links that run straight forward, the area under the engine is open with no trailing link boxes like the MKII or MKIII, it was done to reduce rear bumpsteer issues.

The MKI and MKII front suspensions are almost identical. The upper balljoint is a machined up housing with plastic cup bushings on a round balljoint, the MKII uses spherical bearings.

The MKIII has the front suspension inner pickups "squared" to the chassis centerline like the rear.
