According to notes in its FIA historic paperwork, chassis 10A was fitted with a Skoda body in the late 1970s that was replaced with period-style Chevron panels during a 1990 refurbishment. The nose is described as being from a later B26, and aerodynamic aids include a red front splitter and adjustable rear spoiler. The body is said to have been repainted several times since installation including in its current yellow, white, and red Shell livery.
