Cooper T62

[dave]

Hi All,
I am Dave from North Carolina and have the remnants of the T62 as well as the car that was started in Australia and finished in California. I have  raced the car and love it. The old body panels are red and most are flattened. I am interested in what you all might know about the car. I plan on taking it to Eastern Creek near Sydney to race in November.

Hi Dave,
if this is a real car as opposed to a slot car, you may gain more knowledge about it on the Autosport forum, they have a section called the nostalgia forum where things like this are discussed.

T62 Questions
Look at thread above.

The Red T62 would be Bruce's car from 62 and sold to Lex Davidson. Nigel is right there are pics on the Autosport Nostalgia Forum of the car . I thought there was only one T62.

Hello, Dave,

welcome to the forum!
Even,if this is a slotcar-forum, I am very pleased to hear from a person, who owns and drives the real car! I hope, that you will finish the restauration works `til november...
I have a thread in the "Latest builds 1961-65"-section called "Question about a Cooper T62", where you can find some pictures found in the net and given by forum members. Unfortunately, I don´t have more informations about this car, than the net... Did the team-logo remain? Do you have pictures of this logo?

VBR,
Taffy

Hello Dave,

Doug Nye wrote the definitive book on Cooper Racing Cars and visits and contributes to the Nostalgia Forum on Autosport.com. from time to time. I agree with Nigel, if you haven't already done so, I'd put an inquiry on that site about your T62, and I'm sure you'll hear more from folks who know quite a bit about the actual car.

Best regards,

[Dave T62]

Thanks for the info.
I have heard from Wally Wilmott and he says the stripes were silver on the T62 when Bruce drove the car.
