A March 703 is a 1970 Formula 3 Model. The 1970 Formula Fords were 708's. The 1971 Formula Ford's for the North American market were 719's of which 3 were built and went to Canada. The UK and Continental variant were 718's of which 6 or so were built. That was it for the Bicester built March FF's. A continuation Model the 729 was built in the US for the 72 model year.

71 March 719 #719-2

Eligible monoposto cars DO include 1972, also you may not be aware that Club Ford 1973-1981 (inclusive) are now eligible under monoposto FF70 rules. :o

Seeing Preston lists Europe as his location, it's probably a Historic class Formula Ford he's looking for. Like the HSCC races in the UK, they only accept Cars built and raced prior to 1972.

Yes in UK HSCC is for pre 72 cars only

Currently considering Merlyn Mk11 Crossle 20F Alexis and Winkleman cars of varing value condition location for shipping costs
