Looking at one of Roy Pagliacci's you tube films i have some questions for the experts.



The Formula Fords there is a white car with a very chisel shaped nose cone that looks like its full of slats top to bottom , you dont get much of it but any ideas what this was.? or is it an Elden just with a different nose.?

Secondly there is the spinner with Portabello Inn sponsor, i thought if Mike Chittenden but i cant recall him doing FF.

Anyone know about Mike Chapple he was seen quite a lot at brands for a short while not quite on John Homewoods pace but competitive.?

I can't tell which FF you're talking about. Whereabouts in the film is it?

Do you mean this from an earlier film? The white car in the middle.

If it's a Falconer bodied Elden from 1972. Probably Johnny Gerber driving.

Is it the car on the right here you mean, Pete? I think the car's colour scheme makes it look slatted from a distance at the low resolution.
