Lola T70 Spider Pictures Needed

Ron Earp · 08-12-06, 07:56 AM

Fellows,

Any of you have some Lola T70 Spider cockpit pictures? I had some, but lost a few when my Outlook mailbox crashed. I know they are all different and I'm not trying to copy or replicate any single panel. I'm just looking for some photos/ideas so I can lay out my gauges and fab my gauge panel. Post them here or email them to me, either way. I'd be much appreciative.

Thanks!
Ron

Hi Ron,

Let me know if you need the full rez... (67 penske T70)

Best Regards,

Al

Hey Al, thanks for that, nice one. No, that is plenty of detail for what I wish to do. Interesting how some have a "pod" up and around the wheel, and others do not. Looks really simple though!

Found this one Ron, lol, but they do say it's an "accurate" model...

If you have good eyes...

Ron Earp · 09-02-06, 07:19 AM

Johan, thanks for that, if you've any more please feel free to post away!

The car in the foreground, 21, says powered by Ford - do you know what engine it is running?

Johan, did the sign painter use "spell check"?

Jac Mac · 09-02-06, 04:33 PM

Tis "POWER" by ...Ford. Probably has to have an Autolite/Motorcraft Alternator & battery etc to start that friction filled boat anchor , even Keith would agree after he recovers from his 'Senior Moment'

Note that the "Sunoco" car has a 4bbl carb and probably was the fastest. Was M. Donahue? the driver.
Also the cunning 'cup' type wheel ramps behind '21'.

Sorry, fully recovered now....er,......Boss 429 hemi.

Johan · 09-03-06, 09:27 AM

The 21 car has a 625 hp injected SBC in it. It has the SOHC originally.

Johan · 09-03-06, 09:33 AM

This car is the first to use the bodywork style that Ron is now using.
