Some more boring photos. Building Hello Brian, hoping you are safe and well over there. Still have the Marauder in bits, as I,ve concentrated on this FIA build. Probably will end up selling it to someone who wants a good project. The pictures only show a very small cross section of what I,ve...

Sorry folks, long time no update ! ! Life, Universe and pandemic getting in the way.

James, there is very little steel in a mk3b chassis, save for the front crossmember and rear engine mounts/trailing link/ lower roll cage unit and odd stressed suspension mounting points. You will find it nigh on impossible to find original technical drawings for a chassis. Do you mean you...

Chris, you had asked if there was anyone in UK building original T70Mk3B.

Chris, I,m in the middle of a complete ground up build of a continuation historic FIA 3b. I haven’t posted much about it since my initial posting. So much fabricated or sourced, trial fitted, bagged and put to one side, ready for when last build up is done

You won,t get another chance.

Well work is progressing, albeit slowly at times, on the FIA Lola T70 mk3B. Body work is nearly done and all holes and vents have been done, front and rear lights, windows, etc, trial fitted and packed away, and shortly the body can come off the chassis and stored ready for paint !! My big...

For your 917s to handle right and anywhere near to the originals, you must keep the weight down to allow the Porsche engines to deliver the power, and fitting an after market type fan is not only top end heavy, but draining on the engines output. That gearbox of yours is very heavy and will give...

And here we are racing at Spa last year. 13 years of racing for Gulf Oil UK with it, and you,ve all forgotten.

My old campaigner.

Yes, mine are like the first pictureThat is a rear Mk3B magnesium wheel and is 17" wide by 15" diameter. You would have real difficulty in getting that to fit a Capri !!!!!! Picture is what the Mk3B rear upright assembly to take that wheel looks like. Send me a PM with your home number and...

Front and rear are different on spoke design. You have not stated what type of T70, as rims are different for earlier type. I would not lend my current Mk3B magnesium wheels, but I do have some old ones. Many companies can scan, but making new wheels is very expensive. Have recently lent wheel...
