 Owned the original 73S driven by Schecter and it also came with a developement bodywork having a longer low-sharp nose. It showed large amount of scrape marks on the underside showing it had been tried and found wanting. Under use- the front of the chassis seemed to be oil-canning and a cross brace was installed above the front wishbone mount to stiffen this area up. As I remember it was a 1" steel tube. Neat car but I traded it off for a chevron B21/23.
 Total Factory Production was only 5 cars

 "Despite the low demand, a further three cars were built for the 1976 season."

Per "MARCH - THE RISE AND FALL OF A MOTOR RACING LEGEND" .. Mike Lawrence, the 3 cars from MARCH in 1976 were reworked / up-rated 1975 cars. One of which was uprated again in 1977 and shipped to the U.S.A. for Can-Am - under two liter -- Bobby Brown now at my shop being restored. JBYRON22

 Great article as well as summary: John Lepp however also raced the sister car to this using the BRIAN HART 420 "R" in I believe three other races in 76.

Little known fact but that car was uprated and shipped to the USA for the 1977 Can Am - driven by Bobby Brown.

MARCH 77 ST # 001 is being restored in my shop and has the orginal BRIAN HART and body work like the rear wing which presents the original UltraMar colors.

 Interesting...it's really little more than a 76B w/ fenders grafted on and a Cosworth V8 stuffed in the middle.
