I love the old lotus 49. Seeing that pic brings back images of my youth and good times watching races with my father.

lol, I knew someone was going to be a wise *** and do that. I should have included some of the earlier tyrells (70-75) driven by scheckter and stewart, those are some of my favorites.

I may have seen it a long time ago. The first race I remember watching for sure was the 1979 Argentina Grand Prix with Guy Ligier commentating live and being overcome with joy when Laffite won. Thanks for the vid!
