Ronnie Peterson's Brabham BT18

Post by Orso »

I have been searching information to Build Ronnie's Brabham F3 car from 1967. As far as I know it was a BT18 with a Ford engine. It would be nice to convert the Ebbro kit but I don't have enough information for it yet.
Some pictures are found on these pages: http://www.ointres.se/f3_1967.htm There are pics in some of the links on that page. The #32 car on the opening page seems to be from the 27 augusti 1967 "Knutstorp Cup"
He bought the Brabham at the last race of the 1966 season where crashed it. It was white then, for the 1967 season he had painted it dark blue but I still need to find out what colour the stripes was.
The engine seems to be very hidden so the Ebbro engine could perhaps be used? I wonder what else beside the engine that differ between the F2 and F3 car.
