United Kingdom • 26 Feb 2005
Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1958 Cooper Type 45, known as 'The Cooper-Buick', was the last Formula 2 chassis built by Cooper in Surbiton. Originally equipped with a Coventry Climax 1.5 litre engine, it now houses a 3.5-litre Buick V8 fitted in 1961. Campaigned successfully with numerous FTD's and records, it underwent a complete nut and bolt rebuild in the nineties. A unique piece of racing history, it could be speed-evented or converted back to a Climax-engined F2 car.
Condition
6
While the car underwent a complete nut and bolt rebuild in the nineties, the engine was not rebuilt at the same time. The listing mentions it starts and runs perfectly but needs soft plugs. There's also the modification of the engine, from a Climax to a Buick V8 which might not appeal to all buyers.
