    Patsy Burt's McLaren was blue and white. (Pic published earlier).

    Car 158 I thought was 1970 Prescott but double checking through, it seems as though it must have been May 1971, in which case it was well known hillclimber Roy Lane's McLaren M10B - but with 5,500cc according to the programme, not the usual 5,000cc.

    Johnty Williamson's Cooper Chrysler was packing a 7,200cc motor!

    Mike MacDowell (who I met in NZ a few years ago at a McLaren Trust do in Newmarket) was driving John Cussin's Palliser Repco 3000cc but I don't have a pic of that. If it was yesterday, I'd probably have a couple of pics of every single car running!

    Loton Park August 1973 and Roy Lane again, but McLaren M14D, 5,700cc

    Thanks guys, I sent a message off to Allen Brown, race car historian who has the excellent Old Racing Cars website: https://www.oldracingcars.com/

    Allen confirmed it was Roy Lane from 1971: https://www.oldracingcars.com/hillcl.../prescott/may/
