March 703 F3 front

The Mach 703 was the March 702's sister vehicle. Like the 702 built for Formula 2, the 703 was based on the 1969 693. The car was far too heavy for a Formula 3 car and sold poorly.

Racing history

The 703s were used in the British Formula 3 Championship and neither driver was able to achieve a win with them. Only Dave Morgan managed a few podiums with his 703.
