McLaren M10B 400-05 colour pics?
F5000 specialists please help!
I bought the ex Howden Ganley M10B 400-05 three years ago and restored it to the mid 1970 configuration (mirrors on windscreen, larger wing). However, to this day, I have not been able to get decent colour pics of this car from the Guards races in 1970 to confirm certain decisions we made earler on the basis of old b&W pics from period Autosport magazines (dark green chassis, silver stripe, yellow front wings (?), rear wing (?)... Can anybody help - of course I also have pics of the car today - some can also be seen on the website of "grandprixcars" www.grandprixcars.de. Any info would be most appreciated - many thanks and regards, Reto |

How interesting. That car became the Kitchmac after Howden had it. Was it still in Kitchmac specification when you bought it?

No, I bought it as an M10B. I have photos of the pieces, including the tub, as Howden had them. Then Howden sold the pieces and a basic restoration was done by the now defunct outfit SNE. Seems the owner was not happy with the car. That's when I bought it and started to really sort it out. It got a new engine, custom fuel bladders and fuel filler system, new brake pistons, new cooling system, etc. etc. Now, I just enjoy driving it... |
