    Default Jackie Stewart's Tyrrell 004 (Monaco '72)

    The latest addition to the BritishRacecar.com article series is:
    John Dimmer's ex-Jackie Stewart Tyrrell Formula One Car - shown in ~65 close-up photos!

    Jackie Stewart's preferred racecar for the 1972 season was chassis number 003. The article features his back-up car, chassis number 004, which he used in practice and also in the rain-soaked race at Monaco.

    teaser snapshot:


    I'm just beginning to study the cars of this era. Please let me know if you spot any errors or omissions in the article.

    Excellent! I have seen this car many times in the PNW. It sounds awesome and looks great as well. The Dimmers have quite a collection of nice cars.

    thanks to BritishRacecar.com for documenting all of the cars!
    Looking forward to the read.

    Post typo

    Only found 1 typo where you confused the wheel base with the over all length.

    Called the wheelbase 152 inchse instead of 95.7 inches.

    very nice Job.

    I knew Stephen Griswold in Berkeley, Ca. back in the day - so very familear.

    keep up the good work.

    Default Rear Suspension picture shows...

    Parallel Lower Links, but you have described it as:
    "Rear suspension: inverted lower wishbones"

    Thanks again,

    Rick Kean
