Comfort Racing were a Swedish outfit, used all Longman's bits, but then who didn't in the 70s??

Yes it was.
Says that in -74 they bought 4 complete engines from Richard Longman who delivered them personally and stayed a whole month to help them out making the mini's doing thier absolute best.

How about this very nice picture

Found another very nice picture from MC 58 Mike Clare

I think this is Brands 6 Hours 1962, John Whitmore and Bill Blydenstein. If you look through the garage you can make out the spectator parking on South Bank.

Also is that Ken Tyrrell in the V-Neck and tie?

Is that a rapido fuel tank filling gadget on the rear filler neck?

Yup, quite a thing that filler arrangement isn't it, and the quick lift frame!

Yes Tyrrell in the jumper. The grey car behind the Britax is Peter Lague, quite some peddler in his time!

Not quite as effective as they might have hoped though Pete...judging by the puddles of fuel in both of these pictures

Mmmmmmm...., fuel's going in faster than the air is coming out I'd say. Back to the drawing board!
