1967 Lola T70 MkIII

Chassis Number: SL73/108

The 1967 Lola T70 MkIII boasts significant period and historic racing history. Sold via US agent John Mecom to privateer Lawrence ‘Woody’ Young’s Binghamton Automobile Racing Fraternity team for 1967, chassis SL73/108 was a podium finisher in the SCCA US Road Racing Championship, raced by rising talent Bill Eve. New owner Marvin Webster fielded Eve in five Can-Am races and ex-F1 racer Tony Settember in 1968.

Converted to MkIII coupe configuration – as many spyders were – early in its life and repatriated to Europe in 2013, the car was fully rebuilt in 2014-’5. Competitive in CER1 and Masters events since 2016, Plateau 5 victory in the 2022 Le Mans Classic, piloted by its current custodian, is the jewel in its crown. Meticulously prepared by Martin Stretton Racing, newly crack tested and freshly nickel plated, this magnificent machine is offered with HTP papers and a comprehensive spares package. A wonderful way to fly the Lola flag at the world’s most prestigious race events.
