Chassis: F2-24-59
Chassis F2-24-59 was one of three Cooper T51s sold to the Yeoman Credit team for the 1960 season. It was extensively used and finished second in the 1960 French Grand Prix, fourth in Belgium and fifth in Portugal. After its contemporary career, it was used regularly in historic events. Despite its extensive racing career, it has survived relatively unscathed. Considered by many as one of the most original T51s in existence today, it still sports its original Coventry Climax engine and Colotti Transaxle. The ex-Yeoman Credit Cooper is seen here at the 2009 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance.
