Fabulous article and stunning photos! I began following F1 race-by-race in 1972 and remember well March's exploits during this period. The level of historical and technical information provided in the article is amazing, and the attention to detail during the restoration process is unbelievable. The photos also took me back to my ex-Bill Brack/Doug Shierson Racing March 77B (which I converted to a Cicale-bodied, Hart 420R-powered 2-litre CanAm car); there is a lot of family resemblance between these Marches. Can't imagine what it would be like to drive this beast 'round Watkins Glen!

Thank you David for sharing this. Good stuff. I owned a March 73A F-5000 car. Was a 731 tub, probably the same tub as used in F-2 and F-B as well.

They're in my Atlantic set. Eventually there will be more.

Marc, thanks for sharing these photos of the car in its Atlantic days. Great shots! Here's the car at Mosport after the CanAm conversion.
