About this 1968 Chevron B8

VIN: DBE62

Biarritz Sports And Classic Cars (Bscc) is pleased to present this Chevron B8.

The Chevron brand was based in Lancashire and built high performance competition cars in an old mill in Bolton. The man behind Chevron was Derek Bennett, a self-taught engineer turned racing driver. The 1st car appeared in 1965, the B1, and they produced over 47 different models, until Bennett's tragic death in a hang-gliding accident in 1978. Chevron produced some of the most spectacular and successful racing cars the world has ever seen.

Chevron built just 44 B8 models between 1968 and 1970, 34 of them with the BMW 2.0-litre engine. Regardless of the engine used, the B8 remained a highly effective and competitive race car in international races, thanks to its combination of agility and speed. This situation continues to this day, with Chevron B8s often finishing on the podium in historic races.

This B8 began its career as Ex-Works car in South Africa with Brian Redman as driver. An external oil cooler was fitted above the bonnet to help cool the car as it raced in high temperatures. This Chevron took part in several races in this region until 1973 (Kyalami, Lourenco, Cape Town).

It remained in South Africa until 2002, when it was sold in Europe.

In recent years, it has taken part in the Le Mans Classic in 2004 and 2014.

The external oil cooler will be fitted as originally.
The car will be serviced for sale and will be supplied with a renewed HTP.
