Chassis:
Through Jo Bonnier, this T210 was acquired new by Alain De Cadenet for his Ecurie Evergreen team. It was first raced by Nanni Galli at Mugello and then entered for De Cadenet himself at Kariskoga. The first success came at Brands Hatch where Chris Craft won the two-litre sports car race. The following month, Craft also won his class in the Interserie race at Thruxton by finishing second overall. De Cadenet then sold the car to French racer Claude Swietlik, who continued to campaign the car with considerable success in local events through to the end of 1971. The next custodian was another Frenchman, Christian Mons, who also raced the car with great results, scoring several wins. It was eventually retired from active duty halfway through the 1973 season. Among the subsequent owners was Peter Kaus, who displayed the T210 in his Rosso Bianco Museum for nearly three decades. The next custodians were historic racers Kent Abrahamson and Michel Quiniou. In more recent years, it joined a formidable stable of historic racing cars and has been meticulously prepared for historic racing by specialists Equipe Europe.
