1969 Behnke Condor Cosworth Group 6

Quote
First owner/driver of "HW001" was Helmut Wagner of München, who entered the car from 1969 to the early seventies in hillclimbs and popular airfield races. At the beginning he used a 1100cc Ford Cosworth engine and later changed to 1600cc Ford XFlow, Lotus T/C and Cosworth BDAs in combination with a Hewland Mk5 gearbox.

Really? I didn't see one! Thanks very much. I have been diagnosed with an oncoming cataract, but the operation is several years away. I'd better tell the surgeon!

PS I've just re-checked the source and I can see it now - panic over.

I knew I had that photo somewhere, it's a Behnke Condor originally from around 1968. They raced typically with a Ford twincam, but this is photographed later and probably uses a BMW engine.

You've got it on the ball. It's actually photographed in 1969 at a German national meeting. I agree that it's probably a BMW engine but have no firm evidence.

We had the Behnke Condor before: https://www.autopuzzles.com/forum/2011-39/solved-allemano's-8470-581-1969-behnke-condor-group-6/

I'm sure I did a search first. Obviously not - thanks for your help.
