Yes, it was a car I always liked.

The EMKA first appeared in 1983, raced a couple of times, then disappeared until 1985 when it came back with revised bodywork and Dow Corning sponsorship- this was the year when Tiff Needell famously led Le Mans for a few laps, after some clever thinking by the team on fuel strategy early in the race


Were there actually two EMKA chassis? The EMKA was seen in some of the early historic Group C races, and I'm sure I've seen two cars in the paddock at Donington, one in the 1983 red 'Hawaiian Tropic' colours, and one in the Dow Corning paintscheme from 1985
