We understand there has been some discrepancies as to how the period reference photograph featured on Page 2 of the Historic Technical Passport (HTP) is used, interpreted or commented, if this clarification can be circulated within your ASNs and inspectors, scrutineers, this would clarify the situation. Additionally, we will have it circulated within the FIA as well.
HOMOLOGATED CARS
- For a Homologated car, the period reference photograph on Page 2 of the HTP is mandatory since 2019 as per the HTP Guidelines.
- For a Homologated car, the period reference photograph on Page 2 of the HTP must be within the FIA Period claimed but not necessarily in accordance with the year of specification claimed even if we encourage the use of a matching photograph where possible.
o Therefore the Year of Specification can be different.
o Still, we would like the reference photograph to be in accordance with the claimed specification in terms of bodywork, accessories and/or options.
o If no photograph of the car exists in situ and in period, you may use the Homologation photograph.
- The period reference photograph displaying a period livery can be used to support a car with no livery or to support the use of the full livery, provided in every case the bodywork, accessories and/or options are the same.
NON-HOMOLOGATED CARS
- For a Non-Homologated car, the Year of Specification and reference photograph must absolutely be matching for the Year of Specification and be within the FIA Period claimed.
