Yes but as we discussed previously, the chassis number (which is a B GT number) is reportedly the same as that which John Chatham raced as a "C" in the 1970 Targa Florio. Ergo either they stuck the "C" front subassembly on to the "B" chassis or this was a completely new chassis with the rear adjustable uprights and the front push rod set up. Which would mean they could interchange a four pot (2004cc) with a six pot on the same mountings.
