Cooper T86C Alfa Romeo

This was one of the competitors in the Grand Prix Masters race at the Silverstone Historic Tribute meeting in June 2004.
It's Ron Maydon's 1968 Cooper T86C Alfa Romeo, the last Formula One car to be built by the Cooper Car Company. It uses the same 3 litre V8 engine as the Alfa Romeo T33 sports car in place of the ineffective Maserati and BRM V12 units with which the earlier Cooper T86 and T86B cars had been fitted. It did not compete in either of the two Grand Prix races for which it was entered in the 1968 season.

On 14 June 2017 I showed photographs of this car that I'd taken At Oulton Park in 2003.
