Mike the Lola T70 looks different to me. Is it because the air scoops on the roof or the color scheme?

Il est quatre heures du mat' Ã* Melbourne et tu es encore debout ou tu dors sur ton clavier? Comme petite musique de nuit je te conseille soit Julien Clerc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ipXCnn_yoW0 soit Jacques Dutronc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-G4EQjFUZOc !

I'd say page #11, this one
https://www.flickr.com/photos/petere...7704235164102/ Must give a four door as yours when you reshelled it may be? Always a pleasure to watch those again and again. Thanks Peter. |

Is there a good reason to race a four door instead of a two door? Or just in cas you meet several nice grid girls and need room…

More the fact they were only marketed the GT as a 4 door in Australia, although some 2 doors were privately imported. I think the 4 door GT was local production. The GT500 was a 2 door Homologation special, made locally in limited numbers for Bathurst racing purposes, using GT running gear with some additions and improvements including large twin fuel tanks to counter the Mini Cooper S in endurance races. They are now sold for Lotus money. The Lotus was not used at that time because it was too expensive and did not fit in well with the retail price classes used, although it was also raced here successfully eventually.

Lotus money means something in the region of 92k aus $? How much is a good Escort Grp1 or 2?

Could it look like a Mustang but smaller may be? Might be called either Colt or Carla…
