Re: Detailing a Mclaren

Wow - those shots are great. It's a shame they are small, but I guess that is to be expected given the source location. Still no shot of the chassis plate...

I am trying to figure out where that signature plate lives. It makes the most sense that it would be on the bulkhead behind the driver's seat, but the angles look odd and that hose? is throwing me off. Anyway, that's an interesting item - I don't believe we have seen one like that on any other car. I used to think this car belonged to Ron Dennis, but it seems odd he'd put his signature on his own car.

Most likely that is the car we call #14R or #15R. Mr B's #16R runs a much smaller front plate, and doesn't wear the mesh cover on the center vent opening. Also, these two cars have been seen together before as most will know, adding some additional credence to that hypothesis.

P.S.: Greg - Where'd that new signature shot come from?
