Re: 1966 historical photo\'s

Hi Chris great pics.Thanks for posting them. Excuse my ignorance but what are the rectangular box's either side of the exhaust pipes? Looks to me like they could be fuel tanks
but seems a very dodgey position in the event of a rear end shunt. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

Re: 1966 historical photo\'s

Hi
To comply with race regulations the cars had to have luggage compartments of a certain size. This was the only position on the MK11 that was available.
Regards
Chris.
PS you can always tell a GT40 owner by the hot suitcases.
