Lola T-70 bodies & the coupes have always been a favorite of mine. This one is no exception. The chassis reminds me of Bob's "Econo Nascar" chassis he designed about 20 yrs. ago. The Ferret inline motor bracket & the brass strips holding up the front axle both caught my attention. Are the pans & center section of this chassis .063 or .090 brass? I know you group uses Bob's econo chassis on your hot rods & maybe other classes too. I'll have to take another look at this Lola's chassis. I have an ancient email from Bob with all his original chassis specs for the econo chassis.

Good video. The Lola T-70 had many versions, one could build up a nice little collection modeling them all, coupes included.
