Chassis:
Built for loyal Chevron racer John Lepp with a centrally mounted gear lever. After Lepp campaigned the car in the European Championship, he sold the car to James Gray. He raced the car extensively in 1972. Later in the decade it was converted to a Hillman Imp silhouette saloon racer, nicknamed 'Chimp' (Chevron Imp). It eventually ended up in the hands of Vin Malkie, who restored it to full B19 specification. Today the car is in British hands and sports the period correct John Lepp livery. For racing purposes a slightly larger Cosworth YBM engine is fitted instead of the original Cosworth FVC. During the late 2000s and early 2010s, it was raced by Kevin Wilkins and has more recently joined the formidable stable of a Belgian historic racer.
