Michael Oliver should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid

Just googled Bert Skidmore+Lola and came across a story sourced to shannons.com.au previewing an event (Philip Island, maybe?) and it said that his car was the first of four 3-litre T286s to be built, e.g. they are saying it is HU07. So either he owns the car sold by Blaton at auction or there are two cars with the same chassis plate...

Annoyingly, I cannot open up the page to read more of what they had to say but I think that is quite interesting.

Also turned up a couple more pics of the Skidmore car, IIRC on Richard Harrington's photography site.
