Description:
This car was completely restored in 1995 with a fresh Loyning BDA. It accumulated a total
of about three hours in SCCA Nationals prior to becoming eligable for Historics and has not
been raced since. The car
was meticulously restored by a prep shop whith extensive Pro Atlantic experience so is
not only restored but properly prepped for an Atlantic Car. Totally race ready and competitive
it is literally a turn-key race winner for Formula 70.
History
The 1978 March Atlantic and F2 chassis reverted to a nose rad with the driver further
forward in a slimmer tub. In F2 guise the 762 car was perhaps the best car of its class
ever produced by March. While the 79B is fancied as a winner for the Formula 70 series
the 78B is very similar and is every bit as competitive for Historics.
