Maxwalker should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Pursuing the restoration of AM57 chassis mentioned above, I made few interesting discoveries (pictures in attachements):
-Old chassis paint matching original RAL 7024 used in period
-Brazing marks in the area of pedal mountings, cross tube basement from dashboard frame to front frame, seat supports, matching with original BT16 chassis arrangement
-Dzus fitting behind the front frame might suggest a bodywork in two parts may have been used...

Still 10 years of history to recover from 1966 to 1976.
Will start looking at magazines by any clue if an ad from '70 to '75 can be relevant to fill the gap.
