79 or 80 MARCH FORMULA ATLANTIC BODY

[Vince1088]

we have the center section, with windscreen, and aero side pods. plus engine scoop. we are pretty sure of the year as 79 . March was moving and changing at this time to catch up on the ground effects movement...79 started with no ground effects , and then I think they added side pods in their attempt to catch up to RALTS RT 5 . $900 or OBO, for everything plus freight to you. as we have received input, looks like this might have been a 792 March body and a RT5 scoop/

Not 79

Maybe 81 ?

Looks like 1980 to me.

Yep, looks like 80V to me. I shipped some 80V bodywork to Oriel Della Penna out in California last year. He might have an interest in this collection as well, PM me Vince if you want his contact info.

So i found a picture of a March F2 car, racing here in the states with this body work. So it was about 1982 then, and March had gone away from the sports car nose, and it had front wings, plus the sides pods were aero pods and sloping forward with side panels bolted to them. Also if reviewing the MARCH history book, you can find several variations of this 792 body.

That red airbox looks RT4 ish not the more squared off March version.

the air scoop with this body work could very well be a RT5 scoop...I compared to our other RT5 scoops and it seems to be a version of of a different year..
