AntA35 should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Morning.

I wonder if you could help clarify for me, as I am somewhat confused with how to interpret all of this.

I understand that if a car is prepared to say 1978 Group 1 specification and obtains an HTP to this specification, it cannot then add parts homologated thereafter and maintain a valid HTP. That is understood.

What if a car originally built and prepared in 1974 to Group 1 spec, is subsequently upgraded in period with homologated parts to 1977/1978 specification and is then retired from racing. Can that car now apply developed parts (some homologated, some not) that were known to have been used on other cars of the same model that ran up to 1981? i.e. can that original car apply Group 1B/BSCC parts that other cars of the same model were known to have run in 1981 and then apply for a new HTP, whilst maintaining its 1977/1978 livery? Or, does the car have to lose its livery and use one from 1981 and become a visual replica of a 1981 car?
