The tea tray front winf pic is awesome!
It looks like a Disney character more than an F1 car.

The Ligier looks like it's taking R2D2 along for the ride.

That 6 wheeler was the most bizzare, especially with the vaccum cleaner as a front wing. (Were they struggling for grip?)

All those little article above were interesting ( '76 was a aero nightmare) , good find!

6wheeler was pretty weird/interesting. from what i read it was to help with more front cornering

from wiki: "In fact, the six-wheel design reduced the lift caused by two larger front wheels, improving frontal downforce, increased the total contact patch of the front tyres and created a greater swept area for the brake discs"

The Tyrrell is an awesome looking car. It would be interesting to see four front tires on a modern F1 car.
