Period photos of old cars in pit/workshop
We’ve all seen hundreds of period photo’s of old race/sports cars, but I particularly like ones where you can see the pit or workshop environment, as
well as the mechanics or other personnel such as this one.
Anybody else got anything similar, of 7’s or other cars? Goodwood Revival doesn’t count (unless you sneak girls into the photo).
Cheers

You can do it quickly. You can do it cheap. You can do it right. – Pick any two.

None in the paddock but there are some great photos from the '60s at Harewood hillclimb
here and one slightly newer (almost) with girls on half way down

Don't you just love those old style deeply dished wheels?
Tell them about the bent treacle edges!

Lotus 7 (nearest) and 11 (behind) in the Tottenham Lane works ca 1958.

Never argue with an idiot. They drag you down to their level, then beat you with experience.
