Looks like an early 70s F1 Car - seems to be cosworth DFV powered (but most of them were at that time)

Have to try and narrow the year down 71?

Ok, its not an F1 or F5000 car. It is a hillclimb car and it is DFV powered. It is from the 70's but later then 1971.

Sounds like a Pilbeam MP22...

Yeah it is the Pilbeam. The MP22's were copies built by someone other then Pilbeam (Elliot & Dungworth I've read). The original Pilbeam built car was called the R22. I think this is the original car but I'm by no means certain. Either way the point is yours, well done. 8)
