Hello Folks!!
I hope this hasn't been asked before, I tried the search function and didn't come up with anything.
Looking for any information or ideally photos of a car I just purchased... well parts of a car.
1960 Cooper T52 serial number FJ-9-60
Ordered by Hap Sharp delivered in July 1960 less engine
He did buy 3 of them that year but since this is the only one he bought less engine it is believed that this one was DKW (3 cylinder 2 stroke) powered.
We believe it has a 3 race record with Sharp
Continental Divide 9/5/1960 Finished 2nd
Road America 500 9/10/1960 listed as Did Not Arrive
Midland Sports Car Races Midland, Texas 9/18/1960 Win!!
Thats all we really know.. Not sure who Sharp may have sold it to after that. It was found in a barn in Texas and was owned by an unknown former vintage racer.
Here is what I bought, I know it looks bad and I'm probably crazy but.. you know how these things go, it spoke to me.
Thanks, Chuck
