Hi Everyone
I'm about to start carving a Brabham BT17 - a one-off which was seen at two UK race meetings (in the TT at Oulton Park and in the Guards Trophy at Brands Hatch) 1966 driven by Jack Brabham. In the TT it had a 4.3 litre Repco installed and at Brands the 3 litre F1 engine. It was based on the BT8A, of which there is a Model Cars plan, but with wider wheels and modified rear body work. Photographs of the car are scarce - I have found some in this link forums.autosport.com/topic/141499-brabham-bt17-photos/ and one in a book I have on Oulton Park, but so far I haven't found a good shot of the rear of the car - despite invaluable assistance from David Lawson (as you will note in the link).
By any chance does anyone know of a photograph of the back of the BT17, please - or indeed any other shots of the car?
Best Regards
David
