ossyhodge should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
CHEVRON B5

I WAS WORKING AT DAVID BRIDGES WORKSHOPS AT GARSTANG Nr Preston AT THE TIME When the B5 WAS THERE.
IF MY MEMORY SERVES ME RIGHT THE B.R.M engine fitted was a spare that David had from his F1 CAR around that time.
Unfortunately the car plus driver fatality were destroyed in a fiery accident at the Nurburgring.
The late Terry Wells did most of the spannering on the B5 certainly when driven by Brian R.
It did suffer quite alot with transmission problems as i remember.

The sign writer on the transporter did a poor job with his spelling OF..... "CHEVERON"
