1970 McLaren M14A

I came across this car in the paddock at the Coys International Historic Festival meting at Silverstone in July 1994.
It's a 1970 McLaren M14A, but there was no race at the meeting for which the car was eligible. The M14A was raced by the McLaren team in the 1970 season and early part of the 1971 season. It gained several 2nd, 3rd and 4th places in the hands of Bruce McLaren and Denny Hulme, but Bruce McLaren, who took second place in the Spanish Grand Prix, was unfortunately killed during the 1970 season when testing an M8D CanAm car at Goodwood.
