Michael Oliver should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Well, I suppose it narrows it down a bit because only 2 T286s appeared at Le Mans in 1979 - the Martin Raymond Fisons car and the Andre Chevalley Racing car for Lapeyre...

Does anyone have any pics of the Skidmore car? I know it raced a few weeks ago at the Philip Island meeting in Australia and I asked for photos of it over on the 'other forum' but no-one responded... If we could, at least we'd know what livery it was in!

Also, what made you say that Skidmore's car was the ex-Lapeyre car in your earlier post? Finally, PHDM reported that T286/7 sold at Poulain to a French buyer, presumably Mahe. I guess we need to find out if he still has the car or sold it on (to Skidmore in the US?)...I was certainly under the impression from conversations I have had recently that the car was still with Mahe.
