Hello there,

 

I found this forum yesterday!  ;)

 

I read some things about the 1970th BSCC and also about the Martin Birrane Mustang notchback.

Some of you had posted pictures, which are not available anymore!

 

Is it possible to get these pictures once again?

 

Some things about the background of my post:

In the beginning of 2014 I finished the built of a Group 2 Mustang. It got all homologated things out of the FIA form #1510. That includes also 8" and 10" wheels. For these big wheels I had to widen the fenders, like Birrane on his car 1970. Now I am fighting for a FIA HTP since about 6 months. Till now I used the 12h Sebring 1968 race as period specification but the FIA doesn´t accept this race because it  was not a FIA international event, as they say. I would need to bring any evidence out of international events in which a Mustang with the widen fenders started.

I am confused....on the one hand the flared fenders are not homologated but on the other hand Ford brought a specification catalogue in 1967 which contains flared fenders for safe tire installation (so actually this is a manufacturer´s specs after Appendix K Art. 3.3.8 a) and b) ) and also the Appendix J of 1969 and also 1971 say that in any case the mudguards/fenders have to cover the wheel.

So can anybody help me with evidence or any other things?

 

Kind Regards,

Bastian
