Cooper - 1963 Bruce McLaren, Silverstone International Trophy - Dad's pic.
Cooper Bristol - still one of the most photogenic of all race cars when on the move. There is absolutely nothing in the current F2 arena that comes even close.

ERC, a great photo of the Cooper Bristol - a couple were in New Zealand in the 1950's and this one was found in Hamilton in the 1990's by my grandson aged around 10 - He is now 35. Into Cars and lately Bikes too.
The car is from the 1955 Dinky release, the tyres - period correct are from the 1990's - purchased from a Model Shop that was in Birkenhead, near ERC's place. A racing car with Nobbly tyres ..
C - non British - but not many, hence two pics of one car!

Capella is a well known New Zealand Special - saw it run at the Dunedin Historics back in 1984

Not many 'C's so 2 Coopers
#62 Cooper and the Capella live in the Bay of Islands. Somewhere is/was a road going Capella, somewhat E type looking that the owner of these 2 cars would like to find. Last known in the Rotorua area. Just to add to the "C" cars he also has a Connaught, and a veteran motorbike Connaught.
CJ Sapphire
Not far south from where the Capella was built another C car 'CJ Sapphire"

Strange isn't it, that despite most competition cars going rear engined, it is the front engined cars that have the most appeal. Nice pic Milan.
