Very cool, Lou. I love the period shots.

Definitely 60s, that woman in the background with a headscarf on reminded me how popular that look was back then.  I can remember my mum putting one on in the hall mirror whenever she went shopping. 

Both shots underline just how different the 47 was from the standard car, those tyres must have been twice the width !

Another helping of 47 please!

The Team Palma GT with driver Ernesto Neves and chassis # 15

This car was sold in 2018 through Bonhams auction for 112K...a bargain!

Interesting video, Lou! I lost count, was that a four speed?!

The three in the back didn’t look all that comfortable!

Hmm, the picture with the Racing Team Vienna shows a LHD car.  I wonder if it's a 47 or a 46 made to look like a 47.  Is it GT/22?

Other than that, it is interesting to see the difference in the ducts.
