Chris Townsend should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid

Choularton's car was certainly ex F2, run in 1969 and 70, so would then have been a monocoque. The Wisell car run by LIRA later in 1970 was built originally as FB, so might have been a spaceframe. This was the first [and perhaps only] car used by Mawby. What you say suggests that if he did build a new car, he didn't do so from the Choularton car, which is perhaps, then, the Don Robinson hillclimb car.
