zakspeed65 should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Hi All,
The 72 Cologne Capri uses the same Alloy Upright and Front Leg Unit as my Gp5 Escort. I think it is therefore possible that they were used by Ford supported teams like Mann and Broadspeed.

I add some photos of the Zakspeed Gp2 Top Strut Mounts and Front Uprights, All Raw Castings in Magnesium, it is my understanding that DRM regs of the day stated that "Original" mounting points and holes must be used. These units were therefore used to add more Caster. The Uprights were carried over to the Gp5 cars.

Hope this helps, I know the effort that goes into this type of research.

Cheers.
