Oh dear, here we go again. The number plates on Hannu Mikkola's starting number 12 Escort MK1 are incorrect, if it should be Hannu's car.
PVX 399K would be correct.
PVX 398K is the number 16 car of Timo Mäkinen who finished the 1971 RAC Rally in fifth place, one place behind his teammates HannuMikkola/ Gunnar Palm.
After some closer examination, but it is very difficult to see, it looks like that Timo Mäkinen's name is written on the front fender.
His navigator was Henry Liddon.
In that case, only the starting number needs to be changed from twelve to sixteen.
Andy, is it possible to correct this before production starts?
