Mansell's Lotus does it for me, good one Lonny.

Great to remember Tom Pryce, he was my most favourite driver of that era and it's such a shame he never lived to get the reward of a win, or maybe more, in the Shadow.  Can't say the white paint job suits the car, I much prefer the darker colours the car ran with in 76 - unfortunately it's a white paint job (last picture) when Tom died, unhappy memories  .  :(

Tom Pryce - another driver who nobody has a bad word to say about. 
If you're up that way, it's worth visiting his memorial in Ruthven, his birthplace.
