Rally History (part II)

72 Scottish
James("Jimmy") Rae (no connection with McRae)

I took this photo of Jimmy Rae on the 1972 Scottish Rally. Car is the Frew's of Perth Escort RS1600. In 1973, he won the BBC Wheelbase rally scholarship and the loan of an ex-works car for 1974 (the Mikkola 1973 RAC Rally car, OOO97M)

Dario lists Berg as co-driver for Ingvar Carlsson on 72 Scottish. In the entry list it is Ingemar Carlsson, so there must have been a late change.
Here is a photo I took of Carlsson on the Glenurquart Forest stage (this stage is behind Urquart Castle on the shore of Loch Ness, where people search for "The Loch Ness Monster"!)
Who was 4th? Adrian Boyd, RS1600?

Would like to know the winner of the Manufacturer Team Prize on the 1973 Scottish International rally. Also want to know the names of drivers & co-drivers within this team. Can anyone help?

Ingemar and Ingvar is a very common mix-up even for swedes...

Definitely didn't include me - we retired with broken steering, balanced on the edge of a large drop on High Lock Eck. Pretty sure they were in Escorts - the first 10 finishers were!
Sorry, don't have results (but have entry list).
