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

Excellent pictures, thank you very much! There certainly does appear to be two cars - please can you tell us when and where these shots were taken?

Is there any possibility they could be the same car but with the roll hoop chromed and a different rear view mirror? I agree that this doesn't provide an explanation for the two different chassis no's but one has to ask...

If they were photographed at the same meeting on the same day, then we'd know for sure!

IIRC, the Bert Skidmore car is claimed as being the first T286 built, e.g. chassis no 7, so there is something not quite right here, an issue we've touched on before.
