Michael Oliver should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Well, apparently, Fox Motorsports have T280 chassis numbers 2 & 5 for sale in this month's Motor Sport. This is a remarkable feat since I understand that it was chassis 2 that Bonnier crashed at Le Mans in 1972, while I have always believed that only four T280s were built... Oh well, I'm prepared to be proved wrong - no doubt Fox can provide a detailed race-by-race history to prove the provenance of the cars they have for sale.

Another interesting snippet from Motor Sport. In a piece about the ADA sportscar, they talk about how the original ADA was based on a '1974 Lola sports car'. I wonder what type? Anybody have any ideas?
