T280 is probably chassis HU03 because Bonnier team could not in the week after Le Mans restaure HU01 and send it to Estoril to race at 18 of June . ( not enought time , team
shoked by Bonnier death ) .
Other important thing : on Gaspar car the "arceau de sécurité " was like HU01 and 2 before Monza (driver head protection only ) and HU01 had an larger at Le Mans and Zeltweg.I think this part of the chassis was not fast interchangeable . I have a picture of the car but I don't know how join it in message
all the best at all

Hi Alain
By 'arceau de securite' do you mean the roll-over hoop/bar? I am at home today and all my Autosports are in my office, so I'll have to wait until tomorrow to see what you mean. But I agree it is unlikely that Gaspar's car could have been any other chassis as we know that the Bonnier team raced HU-01 several more times that year.
