Is this a special variant or just showing the McNamara livery in which case one scope would be enough)?

I don't understand the question. -- Spurzem (talk) 06:50, 18 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I mean that if there is a scope for every team's livery then you wouldn't need two scopes, but if this is a scope for the car, then multiple scopes good. Charlesjsharp (talk) 07:06, 18 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Charlesjsharp: It's not about color. How do you get the idea? If I remember correctly, we had often photos of vehicles here, sometimes taken from the front, sometimes from the rear and sometimes from the side or from above. I didn't know that this is no longer wanted. -- Spurzem (talk) 12:07, 18 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The Wikipedia article on McNamara (constructor) doesn't mention Formula Ford, so I assumed that the name on the car was a sponsor. As McNamara is the constructor, then the scope is good except I assume the roll cage is a later addition? Charlesjsharp (talk) 15:27, 18 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Charlesjsharp: Gradually it gets bad. Nevertheless: You can believe me that McNamara built racing cars for Formula Ford. Here one is offered for sale. I do not know whether the roll bar is original or whether the driver later installed another one. But you will find often in historical vehicles that the safety equipment has been improved. But in any case, the vehicle from 1969/70 already had a roll bar. -- Spurzem (talk) 20:57, 18 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
