Cooper Car Company E83W support van.
Where is this van & trailer now?
Question from a visitor to www.e83w.co.uk
Bob dropped me a line in 2004, asking about the E83W and racing car trailer shown here. It was used by the John Cooper Garages
racing team in the late 1950s.
He runs a historic Cooper in motor racing events and is keen to re-create this van combination. This got me
wondering about what actually happened to this great little van - has it disappeared for all time in the jaws
of a mighty crusher, or does it still exist, perhaps in a barn or in the undergrowth in some long forgotten
corner of the world? Can anyone shed any light on what happened to this van after Cooper stopped using it as their
race support van? All information welcomed, thanks.
