1960 Cooper T53

This car competed in the HSCC Pre '65 Historic Grand Prix Championship race at the Historic Sports Car Club's Spring Historic Race Meeting at Oulton Park in May 1986.
It's shown in the programme of the event as John Harper's 1960 Cooper F1 car with a 2,496cc engine. The car was built by John Harper in the early 1980s from remains said to have been Arthur Owen's British Hillclimb Championship winning Cooper T53, and it may be chassis F2-5-60, the car that Bruce McLaren drove in the 1960 Formula 2 season.
