T360s as I see them:
AU1: Jig model, not raced before used by Andrew Miedecke in Aus/NZ 1977, then to John Davis 1978 for AF2
HU1: 1974: Works prototype for Richard Scott, then to Ken Bailey. Rebuilt around new tub after big accident mid season. Retained by works and next raced 1976 by Tony Trimmer in Indyatlantic. Sold from underneath Trimmer to Mike King for same series.
HU2: [The early history of this car may switch with that of HU3]
First production model, June 1974. Bill O'Connor [N.American pro series]Retained to 1976 then unknown to 1980 when raced in Can Am by Doug Moe with a Mazda 13B in it. 'The Banana Crate?' Kept by Moe at least until 1987, now being restored as single seater.
HU3: Sold with HU2, this car for Tom Klausler, but owned by O'Conner's team. 1975: O'Conner for Mike Hall
HU4: July Probably for Gary Magwood [CAN], badly damaged retained until 1976 and raced again by Magwood then [or perhaps a second hand car] Big accident. Probably scrapped.
HU5: August. Nigel Clarkson [UK] also raced by Richard Scott. 1975: Nick May. 1976: Brian Robinson. 1977: John Morrison. 1978: Kevin Bowditch. 1979: Martin Mansell
HU6: Can't find another T360 in competition apart from HU7 which is a known quantity, so don't know who this went to or if it appeared.
HU7: November. Wella for Ted Wentz, used by Wentz to Sept. 1975
The total run of T360s is 16, not including AU1 or the T362 raced by Wentz late 75 [which could be 360 HU1 with development work]
In 1975 the following appear, at present in unknown cars
Bill Scott Racing: Elliot Forbes Robinson
Bill Scott Racing: Howdy Holmes
Bill Scott Racing: Bob Young
Bill Scott Racing: Freddy Phillips
Tom Gloy
Bobby Rahal
Alan Karlberg
Pierre Phillips: Tom Weichman then Dave Walker
Tom Klausler
1976: Dan Marvin and Victor Larose appear in 360s in Canada
1978 Elkhart Lake report has Liebich in a T362! Is this the development car sold to Canada?
