F3 DAF

Here are a couple of shots of the 1968 DAF Formula 3. Well it's really an Italian Tecno chassis with a Cosworth engine but DAF called them DAFs as they were endeavouring to promote the durability of their Variomatic CVT transmissions. They were painted up in Dutch national racing orange and run by Racing Team Holland  but the CVTs weren't exactly durable. The drivers were Beckwith and Van Lennep and to be fair, they both won a race each the previous year on Brabham chassis.
