Joe only drove the car once a few years ago after buying it from Holger, then took the motor out to have it freshened (by Hank Clarkson)- one project led to another, and our shop got the car as a disassembled project, and we are restoring it. We plan on running the car at Lime Rock in September. We would love to know all we could about this car’s history- thanks

Very interesting. 78B-14 was originally an Ecurie Canada car, but people are always claiming EC cars, so we need to confirm that. Email me at allen@oldracingcars.com and we can discuss in more detail. I have become wary of posting too much on public forums.
