1974 British Grand Prix course car

Here is a picture of the Elite at Brands Hatch that I recently acquired. It appears to be an amateur shot and I've scanned it from the print which wasn't great quality, but it's a great period piece:

Great picture. This particular GP was officially called the John Player Grand Prix so I guess they would ask Lotus to provide a car as sponsors.
Jody Scheckter won it in a Tyrell.
