This car took part in the Historic Formula Racing Cars Pre '65 Single Seater Championship Race at the HSCC's Summer Race Meeting at Oulton Park in July 1995.
It's the 1962 Anglo American Cooper of Ean Pugh that was driven in the race by Mark Linstone. The car was built by Ian Burgess of Louise Bryden-Brown's Anglo American Racing team and it was based on a Cooper T59 Formula Junior car with a 1,475cc Coventry Climax FPF engine. It was entered for three Grand Prix races in the 1962 F1 season, finishing in 12th place in the British Grand Prix, 11th place in Germany, but didn't qualify for a starting place in the Italian Grand Prix. Ian Burgess was the driver on each occasion.
How can I reach Ean Pugh? I very much like to follow up on the Anglo-American Racing's Cooper Special. It looks very much like the mystery Cooper we had in our Maryland shop in 1966. It was off red colored, had Cooper or Jack Knight modified gearbox.
