    Great last photo - when Tyrrell became a "constructor" and not just an "entrant". It's amazing how much simpler 001's nose looks compared to today's contraptions!

    And the Tyrrell race shop was on the grounds of his lumber company.

    Also, notice the tires in both Tyrrell photos. By late 1970, the tires had become "almost" slicks, but there were still a bit of grooving in them, as if the tire suppliers didn't quite want to go all the way. Consider this photo of Ickx's Ferrari at the Questor GP in Ontario, CA in the spring of '71. By mid season the minimal grooving was gone and the tires had become true slicks.

    And notice that in the bottom Tyrrell photo, the car is on Dunlops, but the upper photo was taken in '71 and the car is on Goodyears and has an airbox and a different rear wing.

    JYS's last race meeting though he did not start the race(withdrawn after Cevert's fatal accident). 99 starts and 27 wins, an incredible record given the reliability of the cars and the lethality of the sport in those years
