Dan Rear should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Allen I suspect mainly F3s/FSVs.

As Chris says 041/42 were JM6 F3s, there was at least 1 JM7 FSV I think, the '80 FSV car.

Given the success of the JM6, and that Ron T couldn't build RT3s quick enough, they made around 9 or 10 JM8s I reckon for 81, so that might take it to -55 or so. Where the next 8 or 9 cars are, up to -065, I'm not sure. The JM14s didn't come til 1983, which is after, so perhaps there were a few 1982 F3s after all, the JM10.

I agree with Chris again on the Nugent car, which first appears in '79, so it MUST be a JM5, and not an 8. The Adams car was, I'd always thought the Rackham one, a one-off drive after he'd given up on the March 80A that year. The Nick May drive was also the Rackham car I'm sure.
