Yet another whats this car
As the title says. I have always thought this is a Brabham of some type.
The Varley Decals point towards a Monoposto race from early 1980 at brands Hatch. But the number in program I have that tallies with all the other cars on the negs say its a Jovis Orbell. whats this? |
